Love Inspired: A Soldier's Heart

The library has many books in the Love Inspired series including some in Large Type.
I just finished one of the newest ones, A Soldier's Heart, by Marta Perry. It is seventh in her series, The Flanagans, about an Irish family of firefighters. Straight out of today's headlines, wounded soldier Luke Marino returns to his hometown but refuses physical therapy for his legs injured in combat. Enter high school sweetheart Mary Kate Flanagan, a widow who has a part time job with the therapy company contracted by the Army for Luke's care and you have a very heartwarming story of recovery from both physical and emotional scars.
Mary Kate's husband died just a year earlier from cancer and left her with two small children, Michael and Shawna. The difficulties they face and the prayers and encouragement of family and friends make this a truly inspiring read.

I look forward to checking out some of the others in the series and since I read this first I can say that even though it might have been better to read them in chronological order, this story stands fine on its own. If you love family sagas, check this one out!
