Free Downloads Alaska: Four Inspirational Love Stories From America's Final Frontier
The bleak wilderness of America's 49th state challenges three women in different eras: Julie, a nurse, who must serve victims of a 1925 diphtheria epidemic; Beth, whose Canadian-born husband is killed in World War II; and Rita, who takes on the ultimate test of endurance, the Iditarod dog sled race. Each must surmount the obstacles of her life, and perhaps, with God's help, find true love as well. As a special bonus, 'Alaska' also includes Tracie Peterson's novella 'Christmas Dream.'

I liked the second story the best, because it really made me ask myself "What would I have done if I were in her situation? Would I have put God first? Would I have denied myself a strong opportunity like that because God said NO?" But I liked all four of them. They were realistic romance but not mushy or improper. A MUST-READ...YOU WON'T FORGET THIS BOOK AND (HOPEFULLY) THE LESSONS YOU LEARNED THROUGH PRACTICAL EXAMPLES OF SUBMISSION TO GOD.
I do not read alot but I could not put this book down. I live in Alaska and have been in the same place as the charcter in the book. I liked the spiritual content too. Differently better than the trashy love novels you can buy.
Do you like romance? Do you love adventure? Do you like history? Do you love God? I do and they are all here. It is really four books in one, about three generations of the same family at different historic moments in Alaska's history. I'm a sucker for romance novels (and belive it or not, I'm a guy).
I have been to Alaska, and have 2 sisters living there, one of whom has lived as the early characters did. She even dreamed of the Iditarod! Alaska is a tough place to live spiritually but by God's grace anyone can find His peace by yielding to His gentle persuasion. Ms. Peterson seems to catch this, plus the history and infinite beauty of the state juxtaposed against man's innate rebellion and desire to go it alone. I highly reccommend this book
I found this collection of novelas to be magnificent. I didn't want to put it down. At one point I acutally cried. The characters become so real to you that you are moved with their pain and elated in their victories. I also found them spiritually uplifting. Now I just wish I could go see the places that were so wonderfully discribed.
Four easy-to-read Christion love stories which cover the same family through the generations. The stories give you a sense of the difficult but beautiful life in Alaska. I loved it and bought one for my daughter too.
