Restoring Hope by Ruth Ann NordinNative American Series Book 1In book 2 of the Time Travel Series: A Chance in Time, we meet a young pregnant woman who is an American Indian. Penelope takes her home with her and delivers the young woman's baby. In Restoring Hope we see the rest of the story that leads up to that point and what happens after. Ruth has really put the reader through the ringer on this one. The book will have you in an emotional turmoil at one point when the impossible seems to happen. It is really good just some heavy twists and turns that make it that much more of a "can't put it down" type book.Woape is running away from a cruel Sioux Indian who captured her and mistreated her. She is rescued by a white man, Gary Milton, who was able to chase the warrior off with his gun. Problem is that this warrior does not give up what he considers his. Woape feels safe with Gary and becomes like his shadow. Through the language barrier of Woape not speaking English and Gary not knowing Mandan a misunderstanding leads in different directions but comes together when they marry. This book made me think how difficult it must be for someone to be where they don't understand the language people speak all around them. It ends up that the language barrier will be one of the smaller mountains Woape will learn to climb. Looking forward to the next books in this series.**This historical Native American Romance is rated R.
