What Remains True by Nancy Naigle is a sweet story. I thought it contained good writing with realistic characters. It did, though, take me a little while to get invested in the story. I liked Merry Anna Foster who is discovering hidden talents. I like how she tried new things such as planting a garden, fixing up old items, and painting a barn quilt for her home. I felt bad for her with regard to her parents and her ex-husband. Her parents should have supported her decisions. Of course, it would have helped if Merry Anna had told them the truth about her ex-husband. Merry Anna was passing through Antler Creek and fell in love with the town. Merry Anna takes a break from her job at the family office supply company which has consumed her life. Merry Anna gets a job at a local store and rents an old bunkhouse. She falls in love with the town and soon finds hidden talents. Merry Anna�s neighbor is bull rider, Adam Locklear. He also owns the local feed and seed. Adam has invested everything in obtaining the top title this year in the rodeo circuit. He does not have time for romance. He did not count on meeting Merry Anna. Adam gets a surprise when he learns he has a daughter, and he is now responsible for her care. This certainly puts a kink in Adam�s plans. What Remains True is a charming story. I like reading this type of book during the summer. There is a great cast of supporting characters that includes Tara, Merry Anna�s new neighbor and Krissy, Merry Anna�s boss. I love the descriptions of the items at Krissy�s shop. There were many things I wanted to purchase including the barn quilt ornaments. Little Zan stole the show. She is a sweet little girl who is smart and happy. The Christian element is light (the characters attend church). I did feel the ending was a little rushed. One of the themes in the story is how not being truthful complicates relationships. It can lead to misunderstandings, the loss of trust, and even the loss of a friend. I liked the community of Antler Creek. The residents are friendly and welcome newcomers. The author really captured the sense of community and the small-town feel. There were fun events for people to attend. The residents are quick to help each other out and gossip flows faster than maple syrup on a hot stack of pancakes. It was interesting learning more about bull riding. It is certainly a dangerous profession. I had never heard of mutton busting (I do not know if I would let my child try it). I like how the title is tied into the story. I believe Tara needs a story of her own so we can find out what happens to her home. What Remains True is a great book to read while laying by the pool or in front of a roaring fire in the winter. What Remains True is a charming tale with a comfortable bunkhouse, beautiful barn quilts, a rodeo rider, a cheerful child, an incessant ex-husband, unsupportive parents, and new ventures.

What Remains True
I have had the pleasure of reading previous books by Nancy Naigle and was excited to have the opportunity to read her newest release, What Remains True. I thought it was another fabulous book to read from her. She is so talented to craft a wonderful story that is beautiful and sweet. I loved the interactions between Merry Anna and Adam. I had no problem reading this tale in one sitting. I thought it was such a delight to read.
I am giving What Remains True a very well deserved five plus stars. I highly recommend it for readers who enjoy reading heartwarming and feel good fiction. As always, I will be looking for more by Nancy Naigle in the future.
I received a digital copy of What Remains True from the publisher, but was not required to write a positive review. This review is one hundred percent my own honest opinion.

Well Written
The setting was my favorite part of What Remains True. Antler Creek is a quaint, little town in the mountains. It's main street is lined with businesses owned and run by hometown folk; no big box stores here. People know one another's business and take care of their own, even though visitors and new comers are made to feel welcome. Merry Anna Foster loved the town so much at first sight that she decided to take a part-time job and settle down for a few months in the beautiful and peaceful surroundings while she recuperated from years running a stressful corporation and a failed marriage.
While What Remains True is a clean read, and it does include some church scenes, it will push the limits for some readers as to whether or not it should be considered Christian fiction. I can't really expound on that without including spoilers, which I choose not to do.
This latest release by Nancy Naigle is a sweet romance and it will make a great vacation read. I would likely have enjoyed it even more than I did if I had not read her book The Shell Collector which is a very hard act to follow. I had wanted to give this book 3 �½ stars, but rounded to four. I will continue to watch for Naigle's new releases, adding her to my list of authors to follow.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of What Remains True from WaterBrook via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.
