I love, love mail order bride stories, so I was really excited to read Dandelions on the Wind by Mona Hodgson. When Maren finds her husband to be turns his back on her, she moves in with an old widow and her young granddaughter. Though Maren misses her family, she is content working on the farm and taking care of this young child. She has given up all hope of having a better life until Wooley shows up on the farm, turning her life upside down. And giving this short story twists and turns that kept me reading until the last page! Though sometimes the story was a bit sad because it just seemed that nothing was working out right for Maren, a really sweet lady and couldn't help the difficulties life was throwing at her with her disability.This is a very fast read, I read it all without stopping! The characters were well developed and enjoyable and I was found myself really wanting things to turn around for Maren. I loved the setting of the old farm, grandma and granddaughter, giving the story a homey, warm and enjoyable feel.If you are one that doesn't have a lot of time to read an entire book, this is just for you! It is just over 100 pages and doesn't take long at all. So if you are in the market for a good, clean, enjoyable read, pick up Mona Hodgson's Dandelions on the Wind today!This book was provided by Blogging for Books through their reviewer Blogging program.
