What is your favorite fall food? I really love butternut squash.
Laura Evans has grown up attending schools after her
mother’s tragic death. Now a young
woman, she reunites with her father, Granite Evans, in Cheyenne, Wyoming. She hopes that she will be able to develop a relationship
with her father. Laura meets and is
drawn to Wilson (Will) Porter. Will has
traveled west to be a pastor to the Shoshone tribe, but after a tragedy, he is
not sure about his faith and whether he should continue his ministry. What caused the tragedy? What secrets does Granite Evans keep?
My thoughts on this novel:
· The plot of this novel was intriguing and kept me reading too far into the night. There were a few mysteries and storylines that I really wanted to see resolved.
· I really enjoyed the western setting, and that Granite Evans owned a store. I loved all the descriptions of the store.
· A Truth Revealed is a very Christian novel, which I liked. Laura is very faithful and attends church. She is working on bringing her father, who no longer believes after the death of her mother, back to church.
· Will’s mother and sister are murdered on their way to live with him by what appears to be an Indian attack. This shakes Will’s faith. Will he be able to regain his faith and move on with his life?
· The secondary characters that attend church with Laura or work at her father’s home are also interesting and complete the Cheyenne community.
· I enjoyed the sweet romance between Laura and Will.
· This was a clean read.
· This was the third novel in The Heart of Cheyenne series. These novels all took place in Cheyenne. I have not read the first two novels, but I had no problems with reading this novel as a standalone. I do want to go back and read the first two novels.
· The story takes place not too long after the Civil War. Will Porter is a veteran.
Overall, A Truth Revealed by Tracie Peterson is an
intriguing Christian historical romance set in the old West that deals with the
themes of forgiveness and returning to your faith. This was a great read.
