CaseyOregon5 Stars Out Of 5One of the Best of 2010October 11, 2010CaseyOregonQuality: 5Value: 5Meets Expectations: 5What keeps a reader immersed in a story? More than just great characters that dance to life, but a passion that drives the story forward. A passion for God and the family that is held together in His love. A HOPE UNDAUNTED is just that kind of story.
I admit I didn't like the heroine Katie, much at the start, she had such a long way to go before becoming likeable. I dangled by a thread while reading, bouncing back and forth like a ping pong ball as three men battled for Katie's affection. At one point in the novel I didn't know which way it was all going to go and was breathless.
There were moments of angst and laughter as I traversed with the characters. The O'Connors have become my family. I know and love them better, the more time I spend with them. I rejoiced and nearly cried, my heart wrenching for Katie at the crux of her relationships. But in the end my heart sang with the affection I feel for these characters.
But when I closed the last page and put the book my shelf, I was saddened. To leave them behind, these characters I have grown to cherish and adore is heart wrenching. Which I must say is the best part of a truly wonderful novel. Don't let this one pass you by! A treasure!
This review is my honest opinion. Thanks to the publishers for my copy to review. -
Loraine3 Stars Out Of 5Just okay for meJuly 7, 2021LoraineThis story was a little frustrating for me. I didn't like Katie when I first met her, but as the story went on, she matured and I grew to like her. On the other hand, I liked Cluny but grew to dislike him by the end. Even after finishing the story, I am still ambivalent on what my feelings are about the story as a whole.

Sherri2 Stars Out Of 5More like a soap operaSeptember 20, 2012SherriQuality: 3Value: 3Meets Expectations: 1As a teenager, I used to watch soap operas over at my grandma's house. Sadly, as I read more and more of Julie Lessman's books, that is what they remind me of. I've never read so much family drama in my life. I liked Lessman's first book, A Passion Most Pure, but they have gone downhill for me since then. I can't see myself continuing with her books.

CurledUpWithaBookThe MaritimesAge: Over 65Gender: female1 Stars Out Of 5Christian reading?February 15, 2014CurledUpWithaBookThe MaritimesAge: Over 65Gender: femaleQuality: 1Value: 1Meets Expectations: 1Although this was for the most part a good story I felt that this crossed over the line as a Christian novel. I was disappointed in the lack of Christian morals and the way the characters jumped so quickly from one person's arms to another. I must add though that the author does bring the gospel in in a wonderful way but still I would not in good conscience be able to recommend this book to others.
