Abbie Ann (2010) - Plot & Excerpts

Third in the Daughters of Jacob Kane series, we find the youngest daughter Abbie Ann. Abbie Ann is a vivacious young lady intent on changing her world, one act of kindness at a time. A Sunday School teacher, the president of the local chapter of the temperance movement, and working in her father's store, in between all the visits she does with the elderly and people who need help, she sees these acts as part of her mission in life. Unfortunately the young man she is seeing, does not see them as such, in fact he is sure most of it would be below her station in life as his wife. A parting of the ways opens the door for a new young man in town to pursue courting Abbie Ann. A divorced young man, which is quite scandalous for the time of this book. Noah Carson moved to Sandy Shores after divorcing his wife, catching her in the act of infidelity with his business partner. Loosing all his savings to her in the divorce proceedings, his main concern was keeping his young son with him. A new beginning, which he was sure did not include a new love in his life, until he crashed through the window of the store where Abbie Ann was working. Now he thinks of nothing but her. I enjoy Sharlene MacLaren's writing, she brings out so much in her stories that you just don't want to put down the book! This book did not disappoint. It is disappointing that this was the last of the series, you felt like it should go on. I loved the book, and thank Cathy at Whitaker House for providing the book for my review. Definitely a 4 star book!! 501 pages This book was provided for review purposes only, no payment was received for this review. Title: ABBIE ANNAuthor: Sharlene MacLarenPublisher: Whitaker HouseApril 2010ISBN: 978-1-60374-076-0Genre: Inspirational/historicalAbbie Ann Kane is the youngest of Jacob Kane’s three daughters. She works at the Kane’s store, teaches Sunday school, and leads the local women’s temperance union in promoting women’s rights and prohibition. She also helps abused women. Her causes aren’t popular and she keeps her brother-in-law, Sheriff Gabriel Devlin busy investigating threats directed at Abbie Ann. Noah Carson used to run a successful shipworks in Connecticut until his business partner cheated him out of his share of the business and stole his wife. Now divorced, Noah is hoping for a fresh start, so he moves with his six-year-old son to the west shore of Michigan to join a window business. An unexpected accident propels Noah into Abbie Ann’s life, and they are immediately attracted to the other. But Noah doesn’t want anything to do with a God that allows bad things to happen—and Abbie Ann is a very committed Christian woman. What will have to happen to bring this couple together?ABBIE ANN is the third book in the Daughters of Jacob Kane series, but it easily stands alone. I enjoyed getting to know Abbie Ann and Noah (as well as his young son) and revisiting the other characters from other books. Set on the shores of Lake Michigan, I know the area where the fictional town of Sandy Shores well, and it is one of my favorite areas, even in the winter, the season the book begins with. The author did an excellent job letting me feel the blustery wind and the heavy lake effect snow that accumulates fast. If you are looking for a good historical book, pick up your copy of ABBIE ANN or any of the other books in this series. A preview of another book by Ms. MacLaren is included at the end. $9.99. 525 pages.
