Product Description
Return to Blessing, North Dakota, with the story of Andrew Bjorklund and Ellie Wold. After graduating in May of 1900, the two make plans to marry once the harvest is over and their new house is finished. They spend the summer working hard, and the Lord seems to shine on and in them in a special way. Everyone rejoices in their happiness. Everyone except for Toby Valders, who is determined to get even for all the drubbings he has taken from Andrew through the years. Andrew, however, has promised Ellie there will be no more fistfights. But when their new barn burns?and many of their possessions and dreams with it?Andrew throws his vows of nonviolence aside, reaping bitter consequences. Why is the life he has so looked forward to now unraveling so quickly? (Daughters of Blessing Book 1)

 Very good read August 19, 2008
I read this book in one day. It was very quick and never really lagged which I have not found in many books that I have read lately. It was refreshingly pure and entertaining.
 A Promise for Ellie July 3, 2008
I love all of the books about the Bjorklands. The culture and the family ties along with the Christian values presented are a delight to read. I can share these books with family, friends and my high school students without fear that they will read something off color or crude.
A Promise for Ellie March 29, 2008
A wonderful read taking one back to the difficulties of life in early America. Recommend highly.
The best series I have read in a LONG time February 19, 2008
This is one of the best series that I have ever read. It is a must see but beware, once you pick it up you will not want to put it down.
Bjorklund series continued July 23, 2007
The Red River story of Ingeborg Bjorklund continues with the Daughters of Blessing series. Andrew, Ingborg's second son, is a main character in this novel. After years of protecting and being best friends with Ellie since a child, their impending wedding is postponed and may never happen. This series fits right in with the other Red River books and I enjoyed reading the continuing saga of Ingborg and her family.
