Heart
of the Country is a novel about Faith and Luke Carraday, a
young couple living in New York about to encounter trying times. Luke’s family
is very wealthy and looks down on Faith because she isn’t wealthy and she
hasn’t finished her college degree yet. Luke decided to set out from his dad
and brother’s business, and he wanted to make a name for himself on his own. He
bought into the Michov Brothers Company with his inheritance from his dad.
Ultimately, Luke is arrested and charged with his connection in a Ponzi scheme.
Faith fleets and returns back to her little hometown. She is warmly welcomed by
her father but her sister is bitter and hurt by how Faith originally left. She
is also torn and devastated by all of the lies Luke told her. She is debating
throughout the novel if their marriage is worth saving and repairing. Luke and
Faith is both considered prodigals who left their families to pursue their own
ambitions. Will their marriage survive through the heartache and pain? Will the
two prodigals return home before it’s too late?
I would recommend this delightful novel to anyone who
enjoys reading books that contain romance, heartache, and trials. I immensely loved
the plot and I loved how the author included a Christian spin on the content. I
believed that the book was very relatable and believable. I liked the book’s
message of moving forward, you have to deal with the past no matter how hard it
is. My favorite character was Faith because she had to learn how to heal and
forgive even when it was extremely difficult. I also liked how Luke had to recognize
from his past mistakes and grow into a better man. I disliked how at times, it
was sad but I understand why the author had to add that twist into the novel. I
also liked how the book changed character perceptive throughout the novel and
it enhanced the overall conspiracy. If you’re looking for a Faith filled book
with an exciting plot, then read this one!
