If any place on God's earth was designed to help one heal, it is Meadowland. Surely here, at her brother-in-law's Kentucky farm, Rose and her daughters can recover from the events of the recent past--the loss of her husband during the 1918 influenza epidemic, her struggle with tuberculosis that required a stay at a sanatorium, and her girls' experience in an orphanage during her illness. At Meadowland, hope blooms as their past troubles become rich soil in which their faith can grow. Dirk Meadows may have opened his home to his late brother's widow and her girls, but he keeps his heart tightly closed. The roots of his pain run deep, and the evidence of it is written across his face. Badly scarred by a fire and abandoned by the woman he loved, Dirk fiercely guards his heart from being hurt again. But it may be that his visitors will bring light back into his world and unlock the secret to true healing. Bestselling author Ann H. Gabhart explores the tender places within the human heart in this character-driven story of trusting God to turn our burdens into something beautiful. *** "Gabhart shines in crafting protagonists who exude quiet strength and optimism in search of wholeness. With its pastoral setting and reflective characters, this cozy read explores the uncertainty present in every new beginning."--Booklist "When the Meadow Blooms is a touching, wholesome story about second chances and the possibility we all have for growth."--Manhattan Book Review

One cannot help but let their heart become intertwined in the lives of the characters Ann H. Gabhart has so skillfully developed in When the Meadow Blooms. Sisters Calla and Sienna Meadows have been living at Louisville's West Side Home for Girls since their mother's admittance to Rest Haven Sanitarium following her tuberculosis diagnosis. The girls were separated even though both were living in the same facility, and Sienna in particular had endured some harsh treatment. Rose had never imagined being away from her girls for two years when she dropped them off at the home. Now each of them are desperate to be back together. Might the answer lie with their estranged Uncle Dirk, a man they don't really know who lives with both physical and emotional scars? Will he be willing to open his home and life to them?
This sweet, slow-paced story is perfect for an emotional, character-driven read. I am always amazed by Gabhart's versatile writing. No matter the style or genre, I have never been disappointed with any of her books. I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of When the Meadow Blooms from Revell via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.

When the Meadow Blooms
Ann H. Gabhart is among my favorite authors and was excited to have the opportunity to read her newest release, When the Meadow Blooms. This one is no different. As a widow with young children and recently lost her husband during a pandemic, I instantly felt an instant connection to Rose. I could understand her heartache and struggles as she tries to navigate life without her husband. Her story is one that made me want to keep reading and gave me inspiration and a send of hope and peace. Such a sweet and heartwarming story of love and faith.
When the Meadow Blooms will be getting a very well deserved five plus stars from me. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading clean historical romance. As always, I will be looking forward to more by Ann H Gabhart in the future. Love her books.
I received a copy of When the Meadow Blooms from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.
