I really was not expecting this book to be like this at all. I still don't quite know what I read. I picked it for a book club thinking it would be a fluffy and predictable Christian read. However, the story and characters were all over the place. At times, I appreciated the spiritual moments and other times they were very strange.

This story started out as a somewhat typical romance. Anna lost her husband in World War II after being married only a short time, but even though she lost her husband, she gained a family in her mother-in-law Sarah. In a modern twist on the Biblical story of Ruth, Sarah moves back to Ireland and Anna goes with her. They are in financial need and so Anna gets a job with Sarah's distant relative, Henry. Cleaning house is not beneath her, and she's perhaps a modern-day Cinderella, not depending on
