    About this audiobook

    Twenty years have passed since youngest daughter Belinda's story in Love Finds a Home. Marty and Clark's spiritual heritage has been lovingly passed on to their children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren. And now beloved granddaughter Virginia faces the test of her young life. Caught in that difficult period between childhood and adulthood, feeling that she doesn't really fit anywhere, Virginia struggles against what she considers to be unreasonable restrictions and expectations.

    A lively new girl arrives at school, and Jenny seems to represent everything that Virginia is longing for - her looks, her daring, her alluring freedom from constraints. But then comes the day neither girl will ever forget?

    • 5/5
      I love this book. It is from the view point of Belinda's daughter. Belinda is Marty and Clark's youngest child in the Love Comes Softly series.
    • 4/5
      Virginia, grand-daughter of Marty (who was the young bride in a previous series by this author) is starting to grow up and experience the temptations of peer pressure. The story follows her path to understanding as she matures. A gentle, pleasant story that probably wouldn't appeal to many of today's rebellious teens, but perhaps younger children would read it.
