About the Book
Endless Mercy
Author: Tracie Peterson, Kimberly Woodhouse
Genre: Christian historical romance
Madysen Powell has always been a forgiving person, but when her supposedly dead father shows up in Nome, Alaska, her gift for forgiveness is tested. With the recent loss of her mother, she searches for answers, leaning on Granny Beaufort, a neighbor in town, who listens with a kind heart. Still, Madysen is restless and dreams of performing her music around the world. The arrival of a traveling show could prove just the chance she needs, and the manager promises more than she ever dreamed.
Daniel Beaufort arrives in Nome, searching for his own answers after the gold rush leaves him with only empty pockets. Still angry about the death of his loved ones, he longs to start fresh but doesn’t have high hopes until he ends up helping at the Powell dairy making cheese. Drawn to the beautiful redhead with big dreams, will deceptions from the past tear apart any hope for the future?

MY THOUGHTS.....
Is it possible to forgive a father that you had believed dead, but who had apparently left you, your sisters, and your mother years ago because he loved alcohol more? How do you overcome the grief of losing a mother who loved music and encouraged you to share your God-given musical talents with others? If you're one of the three Powell sisters, you depend on each other as you struggle with these emotions. Endless Mercy is a lovely story that shows the wonderful bond between Whitney, Havyn, and Madysen Powell and the strong Christian upbringing that they have been given. It also shows the struggle that the youngest sister Madysen faces as she contemplates leaving Nome, Alaska, for a musical career elsewhere. Is it God's will for her to leave her grandfather and sisters, not to mention a young man who offers her strength and comfort? Would she really be comfortable performing in a traveling show?Authors Tracie Peterson and Kimberley Woodhouse have written a touching historical novel that focuses on the deep love between siblings. Endless Mercy realistically shows their grief for their mother and their bitterness for their father but this book is never depressing. It is, instead, a story of hope, forgiveness, and the marvelous gift of mercy. If you're looking for a heartwarming Christian romance that gives you all of the feels, you will want to read Endless Mercy!
I received a copy of this book from the authors via Celebrate Lit. There was no obligation for a positive review. These are my own thoughts.

It’s so exciting for book two in our Treasures of Nome series, Endless Mercy, to be heading out into the world! Tracie and I are so thrilled to bring you another story set in Nome, Alaska. And isn’t that cover gorgeous? Bethany House does such an amazing job with our books, it is an absolute joy to get to work with them.
In book one, Forever Hidden, we are introduced to three sisters and their family (and farm) in Nome. Forever Hidden is Havyn’s story. And did I mention there are chickens? Check out my blog for some interesting pictures and stories about how these chicken stories came to be…
Book two, Endless Mercy, is Madysen’s story. Madysen is the youngest sibling, and in our story, she’s a talented cello player. Oh, and there are some sheep, who just might help get her into mischief. (Are you seeing a pattern here?)
Book three will release January 2022 and will finish out the Powell girls’ stories with the eldest, Whitney.
This series is very near and dear to us because the Powell sisters in the books are actually named after three beautiful girls we adore. They were music students of mine in Colorado and when Tracie and I had a book signing for In the Shadow of Denali, the red-headed, musical sisters all came. Tracie made the comment that someone should write a book about them…so of course…we did!
I wish you could hear the girls play and sing in real life. They are such talented musicians, and I love them dearly. Huge thanks go to Monica and Merle Powell for allowing us to take their three girls and make fictional characters out of them.
Here’s a picture of Monica with me and Tracie at a book signing years ago. And then of course, I had to put in a picture of the real Powell girls.
We’d love for you to join us for The Treasures of Nome. Enjoy the blog tour!
