Members Reviews:
Impossible to part from! Heartwarming! :)
What made the experience of listening to To Win Her Heart the most enjoyable?
It is a precious thing in a world full of so much compromise, to find a novel that is so true to the heart of God. The struggles of life, redemption, growth, forgiveness, and unconditional love are some of the things you will find in this novel. It is heartwarming to see love blossom in the order it was meant by God; in the midst of facing the hardships of life and learning to make the right choices without compromising no matter how difficult they may be.
Who was your favorite character and why?
Levi was my favorite character in this story because he is a shining example that a persons past does not have to define who they are. "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." 2 Corinthians 5:17
Which character as performed by Therese Plummer was your favorite?
Eden was my favorite performed character! I love the inflections and sweet southern bell accent Therese gave to Eden's voice. Although I live in Texas and have a southern draw myself, there is no way that my mind would have created such a perfect voice for Eden!
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Absolutely! I found it absolutely painful to part from. Though I wasn't able to finish it all in one sitting (as I a mother of five children and finding time is a difficult thing), I finished it in two days time and now I am listening to it again!
Any additional comments?
I will be purchasing all of Karen Witemeyer's books, and audiobooks. She has made it to my favorite author's shelf! :)
Great Romance, Strong Characters
If you could sum up To Win Her Heart in three words, what would they be?
Inspiration, Strength, Love
Who was your favorite character and why?
I fell in love with Levi right along with the main character, and I can't explain why without giving away too much of the book!
What about Therese Plummer???s performance did you like?
She did very well... but as a Texan, I heard more of the eastern southern belle accent in her characters than a southern Texas accent. Other than that, I enjoyed her pace of reading and her representation of the characters.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I laughed out loud at certain moments, and yes, I got teary eyed towards the end.
Any additional comments?
I like how this book incorporated so many things! Romance, of course, but also forgiveness, prejudice, class distinction, violence... and so much more. As I read/listen to more of Karen Witemeyer's books, I can see her growth and her passion for the Lord. The characters are in real relationships, they deal with real issues, but they work through things, talk to each other, and get through things together.
