Once Leota's garden was a place of beauty - where flowers bloomed and hope thrived. It was her refuge from the deep wounds inflicted by a devastating war, her sanctuary where she knelt before a loving God and prayed for the children who couldn't understand her silent sacrifices. At 83, Leota is alone; her beloved garden is in ruins. All her efforts to reconcile with her adult children have been fruitless. She voices her despair to a loving Father, her only friend. And God brings a wind of change through unlikely means: one, a college student who thinks he has all the answers; the other, the granddaughter Leota never hoped to know. But can the devastation wrought by keeping painful family secrets be repaired before she runs out of time?

This story oozes truth and faith. I loved Leota. She has a sharp and spunky personality now that shenisnin her 80's but it is etched in love, and God has lined planted his spirit in her heart. That spirit sustains her through so much.

Each character is special in there own way and the author brings out there worth even when the reader doesn't care for them much.

There are a few theological things I dont completely agree with, but it doesn't matter. The lives of these people is masterfully woven in to a deep rich story.

This story oozes faith.

Francine Rivers spend a lot of time on character development. As the reader because we get to know the character, we can see ourselves in elements of the character. We empathize with them. Then we go on a journey with those same characters of redemption, the kind only the light of Jesus can bring to our hearts. What a beautiful story. May we all come to know the beauty of living in The Garden.

I found some characters narrated in a very similar voice and had to rewind a few times to figure out who was speaking.

Fantastic story

The story line was great, and included many different issues that families and individuals often find themselves having to deal with. I found the dialog between some of the characters to be unrealistic and very repetitive. I was tempted to stop listening a few times, but I was curious about the ending. I guess I could have just fast forwarded it to the end. Overall, I was very disappointed, because Francine Rivers is one of my favorite authors, and I had read all of her books and enjoyed them thoroughly.

Annie's unwavering love for the Lord.
