Whispers of Moonlight (Wick, Lori. Rocky Mountain Memories Series.)

Rating:
Summary: Awesome
Review: I enjoyed Whispers of Moonlight. The love Travis has for Rebecca is amazing. Even though Rebecca started out spoiled and weak, she became a wonderful person beacuse of Travis' love and God's love. A good story that everyone should read. God's love is an amazing thing.

Summary: Disgusting!
Review: I love Lori Wick's books and I loved the beginning of this book. Then Rebecca, who obviously didn't love Travis at all, leaves. I was thinking it would only be for a few weeks but she has the twins and stays there for 6 years! Her children become spoiled and she doesn't even think about Travis! I couldn't even finish the book! It was horrible!

Summary: Nothing Too Surprising Here
Review: In the second book of the "Rocky Mountain Memories" series, Lori Wick has crafted a romance with a few different twists than "Where The Wild Rose Blooms" (the first book in her series). "Whispers of Moonlight" is the story of Rebecca, a 19-year-old who goes out West in 1870 to live with her father after being separated from him for most of her childhood. When she arrives at her father's ranch, she meets his foreman, Travis, who she quickly falls in love with. When Rebecca's father Andrew is on his deathbed, he asks Travis to marry Rebecca, since he wants to know that Rebecca is protected and loved. After their less-than-normal marriage, Rebecca runs away since she mistakenly believes that Travis married her just to gain her father's ranch. Years later, under dramatically different circumstances, Rebecca returns. Travis still loves her, but Rebecca must decide whether or not her hesitance to be loved and her disagreement with Travis' newfound faith in Christ will stand in the way of his love. If you like Lori Wick you will probably like this story. There were definitely some good things about it. First, I really liked how it wasn't a perfect, predictable romance. The obstacles that were faced throughout the book made the hopeful (but not perfect) ending all the better. I guess you could say this is one of Lori's more realistic romances. It was also neat to see the changes in Travis when he accepted Christ, and I enjoyed "meeting up" with characters from the previous book in this series. Two stars were deducted for two reasons. First, Lori's writing and descriptions need some work since they sound unnatural and "hokey" sometimes. Second, the story had some "slow" parts when Rebecca wasn't living with Travis and focused on some romances that really didn't interest the reader during that time as well. Still, anyone who enjoys a sweet, cutesy Christian romance will enjoy "Whispers of Moonlight."

Summary: Good at points, bad at points.
Review: The first point was very unexpected. I noticed that some events that happened in Book 1 also occurred in Book 2. When I think of a series, I think it is a continuous story. But, I will see what the other books in this series have to offer. There are also some slow times in this book, especially in Pine Grove. But, they are critical to the book because they let you in on feelings of Rebecca and Travis. I also didn't care for the ending too much. I was expecting something dramatic. The ending left several points open - will they be covered in the next book or will the next book have some of the same special events like Book 2 did after Book 1? Overall, it was a good book with a fairly happy ending.

Summary: Disappointed.
Review: The storyline was entertaining enough, but hardly believable. Wick has much better work than this--don't waste your time on Travis & Rebecca.

Summary: Enchanting, and full of the love of God.
Review: Wispers of Moonlight was excellent. Lori Wick certainly knows how to portray God, they way she sees Him. The way that the characters in this book were so filled with the Holy Spirit was wonderful to see. The plot was good, although quite exhausting when the main characters never really met head on with their problems and openly discussed them. I think it was really wrong for Rebecca to leave the way she did, and I liked the way Travis searched for her. They should have talked before such big mistakes were made, but I think the time away from each other did them good. It gave Rebecca room to grow and Travis had time to change before having Rebecca back. I think this book is really wonderful, and I recommend it to any one who really wants to see God's love and the way it works in our lives.
