This is a book that I am glad to have stumbled across. While there may have been a few spots that read like a first-time author, by far the majority of the book was polished and flowed smoothly. The author artfully describes the wilderness through which his main character, Raleigh, treks into the Simpsey Canyon in Alabama. Not since reading Black or White by John Aubrey Anderson have I read a book with so many snakes, but they truly help create the setting Raleigh finds himself in. The author also writes romantic attraction and tension that is quite intense without offending those who enjoy reading in the clean and Christian genres.
While The Cherokee Hideaway would not be classified in the Christian fiction genre, many spiritual references are included, some in regard to missionary work with the Cherokee in the past and some with the modern day characters who also have a Cherokee heritage. God is often referred to as a higher power, and Christ is not mentioned.
The history of the Cherokee nation unfolds through the words of an old journal and of a Cherokee grandmother. The reader will grieve over the atrocities perpetuated against the Cherokee, but the mood is kept hopeful and looking into the future. One that will have the reader wanting to follow Raleigh and Jenny into the next book in this series.
I thank Bluewater Publications for providing me with a copy of this book through NetGalley in exchange for my honest opinion. I was under no obligation to provide a positive review and received no monetary compensation.
