I really felt for the characters and loved how the book wasn't just about one couple.
By Melanie
Love Comes Home was a really good read. I loved getting to know the characters I "met" in Small Town Girl (second book in this series, but first one I read) more.
This was definitely not an "everything's perfect" read, as several of the characters go through heartbreaking situations, which made it realistic. I really felt for the characters and loved how the book wasn't just about one couple.
While I did really like the book, I didn't care for the times when it seemed like the story was being told from characters' reflections/thoughts. I preferred it more when we learned things as they happened.
All in all, a great read that I enjoyed. If there are more Rosey Corner novels, I'll probably read them. I recommend Love Comes Home to fans of historical novels -- especially if you enjoy WWII novels and don't mind some sad scenes.

Lightly Heavy Christian Romance
By Anne from Baltimore
Ann Gabhart is one of the authors I have enjoyed more than others. Her latest, this novel, is clearly a romance. It's funny to me that it's labeled "Historical Fiction". It should really just be labeled "Christian Romance" in my opinion.
This latest novel by Ms. Gabhart is about a family of sisters after World War II finding their way to love. There's pain and suffering in the novel. The recovery of the men from the war is only touched upon and not delved into. The story focuses more on the role of love in each of the sisters' lives and their trials, travails, healing, and blessings.
Picture four sisters ranging in age from 14 to 25 years old (I think). One wonders about the family who left her amidst the Great Depression. One adjusts to pregnancy and her husband, a rescued POW, returning from the war. Another grieves the loss of her husband to the war and processes how to heal and continue living with her toddler daughter. The last, who saw herself as the strong one, copes with her husband returning from the war who she loves but doesn't know that well. The story follows these four sisters and their stories.
I'm just going to consider this in terms of being a romance. If you enjoy Christian romance and want a book that isn't going to put things into your mind that you don't want there, this book will fit the bill. It does idealize love a little bit and make it seem as the be and end all of life, but don't most romance books do that? I appreciated the way the sisters bore with each other amidst different personalities, gave each other space when they needed it, but put each other first, too. It is a good, solid book about family and what it means to love one's family. The story is set in a time when families lived in closer proximity than they do today. Our culture has changed. But, the ideas of loving one's siblings and bearing with irritations are the same things that happen in families even from a distance when siblings communicate regularly and have relationships with one another.
If you enjoy Christian fiction set around the time of WWII and romances, you'll probably enjoy this one. I didn't realize that this was the third in a series at first and that Angel Sister was the first book. I much preferred Angel Sister and often recommend it. I didn't read the second book in this series, but it was easy enough to read this book as a stand alone series. I think I can understand now why there isn't as much character development in the book since it is the third book in this series. I had wondered about that a little when I had begun the book...
Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this book for review from Revell Publishing.

A Post-WWII Slice of Life
By eLynda
Love Comes Home is the third book in Ann H. Gabhart’s stories about the small Kentucky town of Rosey Corner. This particular novel is a picture of what life was like for the veterans returning from World War II. Veterans came home to parades and heartfelt welcomes while inwardly they struggled with hyper-vigilance, survivor guilt, and where they fit in the world they were reentering. While Tori mourns her husband’s loss in the war, her sisters Evie and Kate welcome theirs home. Life goes on, but nothing can be exactly the way it was before the war and adjustments must be made by both those who are coming home and the families they are rejoining.
Gabhart’s attention to historical detail is excellent and she brings out the shadows as well as the light. For example, she doesn’t just describe the jubilation at the war’s end with dancing in the streets and the like, she also shows us a gold star mother peeking from behind her curtain to watch the celebration signaling an end to the fighting that took her son’s life. To a large degree, this is what Tori does for most of the novel: celebrating with her family while simultaneously grieving that her husband didn’t return as her sister’s husbands did. She’s in the same place physically, but her heart and emotions are not always in sync with everyone else’s.
One of the main themes of this book is sorrow’s place in life, how we deal with it and eventually move beyond it. Each character handles it differently, much as individual people in reality do, but I appreciated that they all came around to letting God begin to heal their hearts rather than trying to power through another day in their own feeble strength. Prayer is integral to this process in the book, whether praying for contentment, for acceptance, or even for healing itself. Nothing can be successfully done without the Lord’s help, but faith is so woven into this story and the family it portrays that it never seems forced or preachy, merely an outflow of these characters’ daily lives.
This novel doesn’t shy away from the hard questions of life. Why did some men come home from war and others die half a world away? Why does God answer some prayers the way we want him to and fail to grant other requests? Easy answers are not given, but we are allowed to see the struggles that bring peace if not an actual solution. Again, prayer is central to obtaining this peace, even when the situations are far from ideal. Realistically, we don’t understand all of why some things happen, but life goes on and so must the people still living.
Love and being loved are also discussed at length. Romantic love is of course prominent, but we also see love among siblings, between parents and children, within the community as a whole, and God’s love for His children. One of my favorite aspects of this novel was the repetition from various characters that loving someone new doesn’t mean we have to stop loving someone else, even those who are no longer with us; the heart is capable of infinite expansion.
The pacing in this story was a bit slow at times, but much of that may come from both the time period and small town setting this novel portrays. The author is also tying up a lot of loose ends from previous books, so it could be secondary storylines just seemed out of place for someone like me who hasn’t been with this series from the beginning.
Overall, this novel is a nice slice of life portraying the post-WWII period. Readers who already know the characters will find this a satisfying conclusion to the two prior books and there is enough backstory for new readers to pick up this book without reading the first two.
