Maisie and Rayne are the best of friends and I love following them on their adventure. It seems like these two young ladies have marriage on their minds. Rayne has been in love with Maisie’s brother Baxter for probably forever. With his recent return home maybe he will realize that Rayne only has eyes for him. Rayne can feel her heart pounding as Baxter shares how he feels. Did he just say he wants to court her? Will marriage be the next step? I think we are going to be in for a few surprises before this story is over. I adore the setting of this story and how the author transports readers back in time to Dallas, Texas, 1875. I admire how courting was a very serious business. There were rules Rayne and Baxter must follow and if they didn’t take it seriously then consequences would follow. Oh how I love the faith that is beautifully written in this story as Baxter opens up about the two years he has been gone. His past is not pretty and having to confess what he did is painful for Rayne to hear. The good news is that Baxter has turned his life around and follows God’s direction now. It is important to note that even though Baxter sinned, God forgave him. Some people think they their sin is too big and God would never forgive them. I pray that if you feel this way, you seek out a pastor or a godly friend and let them share Jesus with you. He forgives and loves unconditionally. Maisie is a sweet young woman who is thrilled that her brother is now courting her best friend. She is happy for them, yet she wants to be courted by someone herself. Maybe her brother’s friend is a possibility. Zach seems like a nice person and steps in when a man is becoming not so nice around Maisie. The aftermath is a very seriously injured Zach. I loved the little twist with Maisie suddenly having two men who wanted to court her. How will she be able to chose between Zach the man who defended her honor or Bart who has adorable children that she loves being around? The story is filled with so many wonderful moments with young children who want a mother so bad to a very important lesson in learning to listen to God. I know sometimes I hear God but think I know better and find out the hard way that listening to Him is better. I loved Maisie so much and how she never wavered from making a decision until she clearly heard from God. As always when I read a book by this author my faith is deepened as I grow closer to God. I received a copy of this book from Celebrate Lit. The review is my own opinion. Texas Wildflowers is the eighth book from Caryl Mcadoo’s Cross Timbers Romance Saga, as well as, part of Thanksgiving Books and Blessings Collection. I have enjoyed all the other books from the saga and this one is no different. I believe this may be my new favorite to date. It is a sweet and heartwarming story of faith, love, joy, making the right choices and hope. I loved going back in time to 1870’s Dallas, Texas and taking this journey with the characters. I am giving Texas Wildflowers five stars. Readers who enjoy reading clean historical romance will most definitely want to read this one. I am hoping there will be more books to come in the Cross Timbers Romance Saga. I received a paperback copy of Texas Wildflowers from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

In the meantime, her best friend and sister her heart, Rayne St. Laurent knew early on that Maisie’s brother was the love of her life, but she just needs him to recognize this fact. This book showcases how grown-up children’s views are often different from their parents. Plus, sometimes, God knows what we should do, and will speak either through an audible voice or a quiet voice. I have loved reading about these girls in earlier books, and I loved getting to read about their path to happily ever after.
This book also showcases how overcontrolling parents snatch away one man’s dreams of a happy ending. While another mother wants only the best for her son and the woman he loves. This book highlights how the path to happy endings sometimes takes twists and turns, even with unexpected events including untimely deaths.
So if you enjoy historical Christian fiction filled with faith, family, friends, and more, check out this book for yourself.
I received a complimentary copy of this book, but this in no way influenced my review. All opinions are my own. ( )
