card4Kelowna, B.C. CanadaAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5With Autumn's ReturnApril 2, 2015card4Kelowna, B.C. CanadaAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5This review was written for With Autumn's Return (Westward Winds Book #3): A Novel - eBook.An enjoyable 3rd book in the Westward Winds series. This is the story about the youngest Harding sisiter. Elizabeth has just graduated from medical school in the east and comes out west to Wyoming to start her practice in Cheyenne where her older sisiters live. She faces the many prejudices of the people in the years before Wyoming was a state. Word of mouth can be both benifical and harmful. This book also continues the story of Gwen who we meet in the 2nd book.
Elizabeth has been so focused on studying that she has not assed what her life will be likein the future. When she starts having romantic feelings, she struggles with what God really wnats from her.
The story shows God's faithfilness, when we stop to listen to him.
I enjoyed the medial parts, showing how knowledge has changed the way medicine was practised. Sorry that this series is finished. -
Mrs ARS5 Stars Out Of 5Historical with a bit of SuspenseMay 23, 2014Mrs ARSQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5With Autumn's Return we are arriving in the town of Cheyenne with Elizabeth Harding who has come to set up her physician's practice. She has chosen the town of Cheyenne for soon her sisters will be settling there as well with their new husbands. We learn about each of their stories in the previous two books, which I had not read prior but in no way did I feel lost in this story. Elizabeth has to face a lot of prejudice with being a woman doctor from most of the townsfolk and her very charming next door neighbor, lawyer Jason Nordling. There is an attraction between the two, who both fight their growing feelings thinking a romance could not work between them. However, Jason grows to see Elizabeth's abilities as a doctor as he witnesses first hand her care of her patients. Elizabeth is a very loving doctor and cares for each of her patients when they start coming, even risking her reputation in caring for the local brothel girls. When rumors start and her reputation is under scrutiny, Jason steps in as a friend to temporarily court her. But neither of them are prepared for the fallout from the lies they told themselves and then they both must rely on each other when a murder of a prominent citizen occurs. Not only do we get to see the unfolding love story between Jason and Elizabeth, but also of Gwen (her roommate) and Harrison (her new brother-in-law's brother). This was an engaging read. I plan on going back and meeting the first two sisters and reading their stories. I received this book from The Book Club Network, Inc. and the opinions are my own.

loriwellerLancaster,PaAge: 55-65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5Great Historical FictionMay 1, 2014loriwellerLancaster,PaAge: 55-65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5With Autumn's Return is an exceptional book. It is Book 3 in the Westward Winds Series. But is easily understood being read alone. The book revolves around Dr Elizabeth Harding. She graduated near the top of her class in the east but came to Wyoming to set up practice because her two sisters lived there. She faces discrimination of various types along the way. There is romance, murder, adventure, love, family, trust issues, weight issues and other problems that are encountered in daily life in the old west. I can't wait to read the other two books in the series.
I recieved this book from the Book Club Network in exchange for my honest opinion. -
DonnaGeorgiaAge: Over 65Gender: female5 Stars Out Of 5A great Christian fiction novelApril 1, 2014DonnaGeorgiaAge: Over 65Gender: femaleQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5A great historical fiction novel set in the 1800's in Cheyenne, Wyoming. A place of hardships, struggles and overcoming obstacles especially for women. The book contains well written characters, patience, courage, overcoming prejudices, mystery, romance and love.
After earning her medical decree, Dr. Elizabeth Harding heads out west to Cheyenne to start her medical practice. Her two sisters will also be living there. Elizabeth feels that being a doctor and healing people is what God is calling her to do. She is excited and knows she will have patients lined up to see her. However, she realizes right away this is not the case. Jason Nordling, an attorney who occupies the office next door to Elizabeth in the same building is recovering from his last court case regarding what he learns about his client. He decides to welcome the new doctor and is shocked when he finds a female doctor. He is rude to Elizabeth but there seems to be some sparks between them. Doc Worland who has been the doctor in Cheyenne for many years is very prejudiced against female doctors. He scoffs and ridicules Elizabeth. Tells her no one will come to her for healing, but she gradually begins to get a few patients. You will be surprised to see who some of her patients are.
Jason and Elizabeth forge a friendship and work together to solve a murder.
Will their friendship develop into something more? Will the townspeople ever accept Elizabeth as a doctor?
This is the third book in the Westward Winds series and although it can be read as a stand alone book, I would like to read the first two in the series. A very good read.
I received this book from bookfun.org for my honest opinion and review.
