Welcome back to Jacob and Julia's Iowa farm.
In 1893, their son Justin is eleven. and daughter Annaliese is ten. When Jacob and Julia adopted Annaliese as an infant, they were told God had a special plan for her. As Annaliese grows up, she wonders if her purpose will be world-changing.
Julia's old friend, Edward Harrington, comes to visit from England, along with his wife and son, Robbie. Their time at the farm is the beginning of a like/hate relationship and later something more between Robbie and Annaliese. When the families travel to San Francisco in 1900, a shocking revelation from Edward's wife could change everything, beginning with taking Annaliese to England.
If this is God's plan, Annaliese is disappointed. It's nothing like she imagined, and her heart's desire is to go to veterinary college. This could mean a very different future for her.

My Thoughts on the Book
Heart's Promise is a story of young love between Robbie and Annalise that presents progressive ideas about a woman's role. Robbie turns to the Bible to prove his point. It doesn't work out as he planned.
I loved the descriptions of the Iowa farm and also those of Nottingham, England. The settings and customs were so different, adding some tension to the book.
In trying to figure out their relationship, they turn to God to show them the path they should take. The couple is taken through many twists, and families offer their suggestions, which at times confuse them. I was emotionally involved from the beginning and couldn't wait to see how it would end. Highly recommended.
