My Review: LOVE ON THE HORIZON (Horizons Series #4) by Penny Zeller


My review: 
As with Penny Zeller's other books, Love on the Horizon is squeaky clean and faith filled. In the story we see a hurt, emotionally vulnerable young woman trying to leave town to go someplace, anyplace, where she can start a new life. The trouble is, she has no funds. So we commence this journey with Meg as she cons and beguiles her way on a tumultuous train and stage coach ride toward the West and ends in Horizon, Idaho.

Having learned as a child that truth is always best, her deceptions begin to become worrisome to her as truth nudges her conscious. When she does settle in the little town of Horizon, Idaho, good deeds toward her and friendships extended to her smooth the path for her to become the settled person she wants to be.

In the book we meet a delightfully playful dog, a boy that charms his way into your heart, and the hero of the hour - Timothy.

I highly recommend this and other books by Penny Zeller. Books you can share with the teen in your life or your grandmother. Books that have enough of God's Word in them to enrich your life and yet are not "preachy." Books that are a joy to read.

About the book: A fresh start. An unexpected chance at love.

Magnolia “Mags” Davenport has not had an easy life. Determined to leave behind painful memories, she decides, on a whim, to move halfway across the country to Horizon, Idaho, a town she's never before heard of. What should be a simple escape to a new life turns into an adventure she never imagined. From dangerous train rides to a stagecoach robbery, Mags wonders if she'll ever reach her destination. When she finally sets foot in the small town filled with friendly people and a slightly aggravating, but kind and handsome man who needs spectacles, will she find the new beginning her heart craves?

Four things matter most in Timothy Shepherdson's life—faith, family, farming, and food. Content as a farmer and uncle to his passel of nieces and nephews, Timothy isn't interested in courtship or romance, especially since none of the women with their caps set for him can cook. What should be a simple trip into town changes everything after a case of mistaken identity. Timothy finds himself not only under the ire of newcomer Magnolia Davenport, but immensely intrigued when he learns she's opening a bakery. Can he convince the wary baker to both forgive and give him a second chance?
