Love's Unfolding Dream

Love's Unfolding Dream is the sixth book in Janette Oke's Love Comes Softly series. This story is set in the mid 1800's, and is full of friendship, family, a little romance, and the ongoing message of God's unending love.

This book starts with an introduction to Belinda, who is the surprise child of Clark and Marty Davis. Belinda has a sensitive heart and hates to see anything suffer. Because of her doctor brother, she pursues nursing. But when she helps with an amputation, she wonders if she is truly cut out to be a nurse.

Janette Oke always  surprises me, for although this is the sixth book in the series, it holds all the adventure and thrill of the last five. I would recommend this book for ages 12 and up due to descriptions in certain chapters that make it easy to picture the intensity of an amputation. Naturally, as with all the others, this book is written around God and the grace he shows us.
