Gentle Inspirational Fiction from the Genre's Pioneer
Beth Thatcher returns home from her first year as a schoolteacher in the mining town of Coal Valley and steps into a whole different world. Her life back among her wealthy Eastern family is a stark contrast to her primitive life in the West, and Beth isn't sure where she belongs anymore.
She barely has time to settle in before her mother announces plans for a family holiday--a luxurious steamship tour along the eastern coast of Canada and the U.S. Wishing to reconnect with her mother and sister, Beth agrees to go but quickly finds herself at odds with her mother's expectations. After enjoying complete freedom in the western wilds, Beth isn't sure what to make of her mother's ongoing efforts to direct her life--and her heart.
Beth keeps in touch with her Mountie beau, Jarrick, even as young men more of her station catch her eye. Is she ready to fully give her heart to Jarrick, knowing it will mean saying good-bye to her family and her life of privilege once again? And when Beth trusts the wrong person, will Jarrick be able to help her despite the distance between them?

{My Review}
Rating: 5 stars!
Janette Oke has done it again!! Where Trust Lies is book #2 in the Return to the Canadian West series. Which is a companion series to Janette's original, Canadian West series. I read the original series many years ago, as well as Janette's Love Comes Softly books and films. I have been a fan of Janette's for the longest time, since I was a little girl. And when I heard she writing a companion series to the Canadian West series/When Call the Heart TV series, I was so ecstatic. Janette's books have beautiful prose, they are poignant, and they are just an absolute delight to read. I always look forward to another Janette Oke book. I highly recommend it.
