This is the 2nd book in the Troublesome Creek Series. It is a fish out of water story, which I love! Copper finds herself in the big city with indoor plumbing and servants. It's such fun to watch her learn how to be a refined lady. I highly recommend this wonderful book.
Copper--AKA Laura Grace--must adjust to life in the city where she is settling in with her doctor husband. She misses the mountains where she grew up immensely, but she also loves her husband and for his sake endures wearing fancy dresses and the harsh remarks of his sister. This is a story of how Copper and her husband come to love one another more, and of how Copper finds a new vocation--that of midwife--as she learns how to reach out to others with God's grace. This is a sweet story, full of romance, historical details, and the lessons of life. If you enjoy those things, definitely give it a read--but you might want to read the first book in the series, Troublesome Creek, first.
Love this series! I read all three within a week! I fell in love with the characters and the setting. Great books!
Sequel to Troublesome Creek. Cooper finds herself living in the bustling city of Lexington, Ky. - Cooper nor her husband could predict the tragedy that would change their lives.
