Wow, this one will play upon your heartstrings. The character development is strong and excellent and the story is rife with emotions. The story is of the Starry Family, especially Tommy. Many members of the Starry Family have been unwanted and abandoned and taken in by the family, including Tommy. Tommy has been tormented for years by a mystery man and thus the family engages the services of a family friend, a U.S. Marshall, to try to discover who this mystery man is.
Wow!! This is an amazing story!! I was truly touched and enjoyed reading this book and I loved the characters!! The subject matter that the author has written about is something no one wants to write about, as it is a very personal story to me and countless others in the world!! These things happened then and is still happening today!! This is a must read for all who enjoy the love of the Lord, family, friends, neighbors!
The way she shares with us the kids’ lives and their struggles they faced along their way had me shedding some tears. She writes with the message of “you are loved, you are special” and I absolutely loved that. The characters have their fair share of struggles, but they work through them and find their way to a happy ending.
The book was a real page turner that help my attention throughout the entire book. It covered some touchy subjects, but she did it in such a way that made it respectful. She shares cultural issues as well as adoption, fostering, and abuse. Talk of the children being sent to a home where they are made to stay in a bed all day was hard for me to read, it just broke my heart.
A must read for everyone! The Starry’s come to life in this incredible and moving story of passionate love and the love of family. The trust Izzy has for her horse Phoenix!! This explores the amazing Adoptions of some very different but very alike girls who only want to be loved!! I can’t say enough about this amazing story!! Thanks Temperance Johnson for letting me be an ARC reader!! I truly enjoyed the book!! My personal honest opinion of this book!! I would recommend this to everyone who loves passionate romantic historical westerns with incredible story lines and fascinating characters!! Fall in love with a family that is truly devoted!!

Tragedy to triumph, pain to promise, this is a story of the love of God carrying his beloved through pasts of abuse, betrayal, shame and guilt into a future of healing, trust, forgiveness and hope. Broken but pieced back together through His unconditional love, each character comes to know Who will never leave or forsake His children. Encouraging and uplifting.
Well-written return
This saga has so much heart! The world that has been created is simply amazing. Could definitely be read as a stand alone, but, as good as these are,, just get all of them. I hope she continues this wonderful gathering of family stories!
