Rating: 4 out of 5.

Amanda Cabot has another historical romance that is not to be missed!

Louisa Vaughn has been working to become a doctor. After helping a friend in Sweetwater Crossing, she wants to move on as quickly as possible. As she tries to leave, she finds an injured man on the side of the road and knows she must stay and help him heal. Josh Porter did not plan to end up with a broken leg, but he uses the time to try and expand his business in the small community. Louisa is able to help but the town doesn’t want her help and if she isn’t careful, they will convince her to leave her dream behind of healing others and be able to stay with the man she is falling for.

Against the Wind is an inspirational and enjoyable Christian romance read. This is the second book in the series, but each book can also be read as a stand-alone. In these stories, we see a family of three sisters and how each uses the talents they have to move forward in the world. Diving into Louisa’s world and all she is trying to work through was interesting and I found myself rooting for her to succeed not only in life but in love. She was faced with almost every hardship imaginable and almost let it bring her down. I loved the way the story played out and how all the characters interacted so naturally. I recommend this book to those that enjoy Historical Fiction with great romance.

I received a complimentary copy of this title from the publisher.  The views and opinions expressed within are my own.
