Bethany House Publishers and Netgalley provided me with a copy of A Time to Bloom for review:
Delphinium Nielsen and her sisters have accomplished much over the past year, traveling west and settling in Nebraska. To make their farm thrive, they are building a garden in dedication to their mother. All of that does not mask their concern that they are quickly running out of money. Del’s work as a teacher in their booming town offers hope, not only for the financial support of her sisters, but also for the improvement of the lives of her students. Although most of the town agrees, the schoolhouse’s rebuilding has been neglected and her brightest student’s father insists he work the farm instead of attending class.
When Anders arrives with his war-wounded and heartbroken friend RJ, he sees the strength of the sisters’ idea and decides to invest in it. Del finds RJ barely polite and does not want to interact with him. Del and her sisters might be surprised by RJ’s future despite their best-laid plans.
I give A Time to Bloom five out of five stars!
Happy Reading!
