Praise for this book
In my opinion, this is the best of the series yet. As a grandmother myself, my heart broke for the pain Merab went through with children and grandchildren not following the teachings of Jehovah. I also deeply felt the joy in rejoicing with the triumphs of other of her progeny. This book has been a great blessing to me.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading Love Defied! Having read the previous books in the Lost Children of the Prophet series, the characters in this story truly feel like real people to me. I love reading the daily interactions between the characters and how they work through family issues as well as outside persecutions. Ms. Conger's writing style makes the story seem so very real. I felt the uncertainty some of the characters experienced when faced with the knowledge that they would have to build a new community to accommodate their growing family. Change is so hard!! I'm anxious to see what happens to them in the next books to come. I love the style of Ms. Conger's writing; it flows so easily and yet contains so much depth at the same time. She is a true storyteller!
