Love Comes Softly by Janette Oke
4.0
The GOLD STANDARD for Christian romance. Good grief, was this really Janette Oke's FIRST book?? Legend.
Is this "literature"? Nah. Is this a good book, with interesting characters and a plot that goes somewhere? Yeah! Is the "romance" (what there is) realistic? Yes. Is the Christian part not heresy? Also yes. Is the general setting and characterization of everybody not trash? Also yes!
Janette Oke is the Queen, Grace Livingston Hill is the Queen Mother, T. Davis Bunn is the reliable workhorse Duke of Somewhere, Francine Rivers is the party-girl princess cousin making headlines for questionable behavior, and the rest of y'all amish-quilt-romance authors are just the tacky relatives.
