Remember Me by Tracie Peterson Review

 

I had the opportunity as part of the launch team to read the first book in the Pictures of the Heart series by Tracie Peterson, titled Remember Me.

Imagine living a life where your own family mistreats and abuses you, then sells you to a brothel where you become the mistress of the brothel owner. It’s the early 1900’s and you feel you have been sullied for life. And on top of that, you are in love with a man who went off to college and promised to come back for you, but now you’ve run away and made a new start with your life. You feel there is no way to be with your beloved ever again because of what you have been through.

This is the life that Addie is living now in Seattle. She found a family and a job she enjoys. It’s now 1909 and the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Expo has come to Seattle. Which is a wonderful opportunity. Except it also brings her in contact with her beloved and her brothers again. How will it all play out? What kinds of twists will there be along the way?

I absolutely loved this story. It was my first book by Tracie Peterson and it won’t be my last.
I had never heard of the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Expo, so this was an interesting time in history to learn about. I fell in love with the main characters and their plight. I loved the anticipation, wondering how Addie would come in contact with Isaac and her brothers again. There was a nice amount of suspense as well. Most importantly, the author shares important spiritual truths.

If you are a fan of Christian historical fiction, you’ll want to read this book.

I received this book for free from the author as a part of the launch team and was not required to write a favorable review. These are my own, honest thoughts.
