The Minister's Wife

Always a champion of the nineteenth century American woman, who had few champions in her own time, Ms. Parr delivers a powerful tale of one woman's courage and honor in the face of the ultimate deception. And her hero grows roses-- you're going to love him! The best part of this book, however, is the ending. Don't peek!

Ms. Parr has long since been on my favorite author list, but with THE MINISTER'S WIFE, she's given her readers an extraordinary gift.I was skeptical. A married woman falling in love with another man? Was this a woman I could respect and admire?She was. The woman--and the man she grows to love--were honorable. Exactly the kind of people most aspire to be. With her deft skills at creating emotion-churning characters with integrity and self-respect, Ms. Parr succeeded. I loved everything about this book! It remained true to its historical setting, the social mores and customs, and the mind-set of the society portrayed. An excellent, excellent read that will more than satisfy Ms. Parr's many established fans and will have new ones flocking to her books, begging for more!
