Where Heaven Begins

I have to admit I disagreed with the reviewer that didn't feel that this book rang true as far as the Christianity influence ... or maybe I just read her review incorrectly ... I really enjoyed this book and as a former fan of Roseanne Bittner's books back when I used to read mainstream romances ... when I saw that she was writing Christian romances which I now read I became interested ... and I do have to say I truly enjoyed it, yes, it may have been different than some of the others I have read but that is what I love about all the Christian authors I read. This book was set back right before the turn of the 1900's which I found facinating ... and I know I struggled with Liz & Clint on their nightmare of a journey to Alaska. I felt at times that I was there ... I was heartbroken over Clint's struggles, and proud that he overcame his grief ... but as we know it is never easy. The physical struggles as well as the emotional struggles in their journey were horrendous ... made one realize how hard life was back then ... boy am I ever appreciative of modern conveniences that we have today ... but we, too, have our own personal struggles and it is up to us how we handle them. Excellent book ... one that I enjoyed very much!

i found this book to be a delightful romance, with quite a bit of adventure, too. i loved the christian theme, it was straight to the point. the book deals with the subject of trusting in the Lord in spite of tragedies and misfortunes. i think this is a subject upon which everyone has had questions at one time or other and i personally profited greatly from reading "where heaven begins". the romance was very sweet, while at the time being quite realistic.

I Love this series of religious book by Rosanne Bittner, as with all her books they leave you wanting more.

This is a story about two opposites. A rough bounty hunter running away from his past and a Christian woman who falls in love with him and helps him face his past, while he saves her life every five minutes. The story is somewhat entertaining and easy to read. This appears to be the first "Christian" book by Ms. Bittner. However, I couldn't help but feel that she's writing about something she doesn't really understand. The heroine is a "good" Christian and there are plenty of bible verses thrown in for good measure. However, something just doesn't ring true. I can't help but feel like this is just a "new market" for Ms. Bittner. If you read Robin Lee Hatcher or Francine Rivers (who once were secular writers), you can immediately tell that they understand what being a Christian is and how one thinks. Ms. Bittner seemed to write a story and throw some verses and preaching in there to "make it Christian." Overall it was a fun story and I hope she continues to write more in the same vein. It's always nice to read a romance without the mindless and moronic explicit sexual scenes.

This is one of best novels I've read. The characters are so real. They have real issues and struggles and face lots of adversity. If you don't read this book you will be missing out on a skillfully written story of love, trust, forgiveness and determination. You will laugh and cry with these characters whom you will come to love very much. I highly recommend this book to anyone. You won't be sorry you took the time. It's one you won't want to put down. Rosanne Bittner has a rare gift in the way she writes.
