Book Review: To Honor and Trust

To Honor and Trust (Bridal Veil Island)


To Honor and Trust
by Tracie Peterson & Judith Miller

From Bethany Publishing Website:

Come home to magnificent Bridal Veil Island resort!

Bridal Veil Island, Georgia 1913

Callie Deboyer arrives at Bridal Veil Island to spend the winter working as a governess for the Bridgeport family. However, she finds she can't fully enjoy the beautiful resort because questions about her future weigh heavily on her mind: Should she continue in this job she enjoys, or is God calling her to join her parents in their missionary work?

When she enrolls young Thomas Bridgeport in golf lessons, Callie meets instructor Wesley Townsend, who urges Callie to take lessons, as well. During their time together, Callie comes to care for Wes--until she discovers that he's been hiding something very important from her.

Then expensive pieces go missing from various homes around the island, and suspicion is aimed in Callie's direction. Callie wonders if this is a sign she should leave it all behind and join her parents in Africa. Considering Wesley's deceit, will he ever be a man Callie can honor and trust for the rest of her life?

My thoughts:

   I really enjoyed this book.  It kept me wanting more!  I feel in love with the characters.  I kept reading because of the characters.  I wanted to know what Callie decided to do with her future.  I kept reading because I wanted to know what Wes was going to do about his family.  I kept reading to learn about the Bridgeport children.  As each character developed they each played a part in the plot development.  I noticed this is the third book in the Bridal Veil Island series.  I feel like the characters developed and I can leave the be and I am happy not wondering what is going to happen in their lives.  I have not read books 1 and 2 yet however when reading this book, I did not feel like I was missing anything.

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

And yes, I received this book for free from Bethany House for this review.  But I told the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!
