Description Toward Books A Hope Undaunted (Winds of Change #1)
What happens when the boy she loved to hate becomes the man she hates to love? The 1920s are drawing to a close, and feisty Katie O'Connor is the epitome of the new woman—smart and sassy with goals for her future that include the perfect husband and a challenging career in law. Her boyfriend Jack fits all of her criteria for a husband—good-looking, well-connected, wealthy, and eating out of her hand. But when she is forced to spend the summer of 1929 with Luke McGee, the bane of her childhood existence, Katie comes face-to-face with a choice. Will she follow her well-laid plans to marry Jack? Or will she fall for the man she swore to despise forever?Be Specific About About Books A Hope Undaunted (Winds of Change #1)

Far too much sexual content. Sad. (My, I'm starting to sound like Donald Trump)A Hope Undaunted is everything I knew it would be. Ms. Lessman's exquisite talent for expressing the deep passions, joys, and torments of the soul will not only endear you to her characters but will keep you up late at night reading until the end. This book has it all. The warmth and love of family sitting around the hearth as well as the trying economic and licentious times of the roaring twenties all brought together in a story that will stir your heart and bring you deep spiritual lessons
480 pages was not long enough for any of the books in the first series, so why would you think 505 pages would be? A Hope Undaunted is the first book in the Winds of Change series, but really the fourth book for the Daughter's of Boston continuing the saga and story of the O'Connor daughters with a passion. Through the adventures with these Irish girls we have learned about "a passion most pure", "redeemed" and even "denied" yet now we turn to learning about hope. More specifically about "a hope
Love the O'ConnorsLessman continues engraving the large O'Connor family into the hearts of her readers. They're practically family. Looking forward to the next book.
Feeling a little swindled, was not expecting as much religious connotations based on the book summary. It was fine just not what I was in the mood for.
Warning: if you have work to do, and you are reading this book, you may not get your work done until you turn the last page! This is the best book I have read (in the Christian fiction category) since A Distant Melody by Sarah Sundin. This is not one that I keep on my nightstand to pick up if I need to wind down the day with something. Oh no. This book is one that I literally carried around the house with me, so if I had any spare moments in any given room, I could pick it up. So hard to put it
I am a huge fan of Julie Lessman's work and I've been dying for another book for her. A Hope Undaunted was fantastic. I love Cluny. My favorite hero so far, and I really LOVE Lessman's other heroes. Katie O'Connor is such a strong, feisty little heroine, the perfect slice of trouble to bedevil poor Cluny. I recommend this to anyone, get it and read it without delay!
