Narration In Favor Of Books A Gown of Spanish Lace (Women of the West #11)

A heritage so very different from her own, but one profound connection.

Ariana loves her life her parents, her little town, her job as the town's schoolteacher, her students. But one evening after classes are done and she prepares to hurry home before a blizzard hits, her whole life changes in an instant.

The two rough-looking men who abduct her and take her far from home and family make no response to her frantic questions "Why me? What are you going to do? Where are you taking me?" Held hostage in a camp of bandits, Ariana's emotions swing between terror and boredom as days stretch into weeks.

And then the boss's son appears in the doorway of her cabin. Does this mean she will never see her mother and father again, the two who had so lovingly adopted her as an infant and raised her as their own? Will she ever wear the wedding dress so carefully saved for her her one link with her birth parents, now long dead?

Evaluation Regarding Books A Gown of Spanish Lace (Women of the West #11)

The only part I didn't like was at the end when Laramie and Ariana thought they were brother and sister. Even though I knew it wouldn't turn out to be true, just the thought of it was freaking me out and then Laramie being tempted to burn the lace cuff and never tell anyone was killing me, Oh my gosh.I also thought the ending was too abrupt. At first I thought the pages were stuck together and I'd skipped a page.

I like the other books by Janette Oke more then this one. I thought in was a little stupid. But that doesn't mean you wouldn't like it.

I liked this better than the other two "Women of the West" books I've read. This book reminded me of two other books -- "The Long Winter" (I think that's the right one), where Laura Ingalls is a young schoolteacher, and "The Wedding Dress", where an orphan's only link to her birth mother is a wedding dress that was carried in an old trunk via wagon train.It's an interesting story of small towns, frontier life, love and God's care, with a little "Stockholm Syndrome" thrown in for good measure.

This was the first book I ever read by Janette Oke. I fell in love with her writing! Not only because of the period in time she loves to write about (pioneer era) but because her characters always have a challenge that they are able to rise above by finding God, or by learning to trust Him more. She is a wonderful Christian Fiction writer and I would highly recommend her books to anyone!!

This book takes the reader back to a time when there were people called desperado's. These individuals are now famous for kidnapping young innocent women and rapping them senseless. However, this book explores the concept of Stockholm Syndrome. I would recommend this book for adult eyes only.

Well, my name is Ariana, so I'm already inclined to like this book more than most. I think that this is one of Oke's top three books, the other two are A Bride for Donnigan and A Woman Named Damaris. If you like similar books, I would certainly recommend this one. Laramie is a great example to us all.

This was so cute! I knew I would love it because I love the love comes softly movie's based off of Janette Oke's books and I can't wait to read more!!
