Woman of Courage by Wanda E. Brunstetter
5.0
I received this book free from Net Galley for my honest review.
Woman of Courage was a really awesome read and I can’t say enough about it. I loved, loved, loved Woman of Courage. I could not put it down once I started reading. It is well written and really kept my attention. Woman of Courage is the first book that I have ever read by this author and it will certainly not be the last. I look forward to reading many more books by her. Woman of Courage is Amanda’s story. It follows her from San Francisco to Oregon and all her hardships and triumphs along the way.
Amanda’s life is just about perfect. She is about to marry the perfect man and she is very happy. All of that is about to change when her fiancé shows up at her place the night before their wedding. When he breaks off their engagement she is devastated and is unsure of what to do. Then she finds her purpose and calling. She decides she wants to go west and work with the Indians in Oregon. As she travels she loses a lot including her father and her tour guide. Along the way she also learns lessons and has opportunities to share the love of God with others. As she impacts each person’s lives they are also impacting hers. When she faces adversity will she rise to the occasion and truly become a woman of courage? Or will she find that things are too tough on her?
I really loved Woman of Courage and felt it was well written. It was a very emotion read as well because the author is able to draw you into the past. You are able to experience life through Amanda’s eyes and through some of the many other characters. I really liked Amanda’s character because she lived up to the title of the book. She was a very strong lead and never let go of her convictions even when times went from bad from to worse. I liked that she seemed to bounce back from everything. I like that it illustrated how faith can get you through everything. I also liked Buck McFadden. I thought he was a bit flawed due to his past but he was perfect for Amanda. I like that the relationship between he and Amanda grew and triumphed over all the obstacles that were thrown in their way. I like that they were unequally yoked at first and I also like how his entire story played out across the pages. He was able to triumph over his past. I also enjoyed most of the other secondary characters with the exception of the ones we are not supposed to like. I would highly recommend Woman of Courage to those who enjoy reading historical Christian Romances. I would highly recommend this writer to anyone who loves this genre as well. I know I will be running out to get more of her books soon.
