Forbidden by her fire-and-brimstone preacher father ever to see her lover, Mike Dolan, again, Letty Pringle remains on her family's Midwestern farm, raising her son alone and waiting for the day that Mike will return to her.
this book is definately up there with one of my favorite romance stories. i was a little hesitant about reading this because of the whole religious undertones and the family...sounded too familiar within my own life. but this is a beautiful, touching story.
Absolutely wonderful!!!!

This is one great book!!! The romance is sizzling, and the characters are unforgetable!! I couldn't put this book down, and am now anxious for my next Dorothy Garlock book!Tension and excitement are found on every page, as Letty and Mike fall in love, then lose each other due to Letty's father. When Letty - fifteen, pregnant, and terrified - seeks out her grandparents that she doesn't even know, in hopes they will take her in until Mike finds her, you can feel the fear with every word Ms. Garlock writes. Throughout the story, you feel all the growing pains of Letty as she becomes a woman and mother.Mike Dolan comes home from working in the logging camp to hearing that Letty has become ill and died at her grandparent's farm. Mike begins a reckless life when joining the war, and when he finally gets out... decides to visit Letty's gravesite, hoping he'll be able to move on. Only instead of a gravesite for his dear Letty, he finds out she is alive... and with another last name... could she actually be alive?? ... and is she married???In addition, the story includes murder and threats from Letty's family after many years... these items will keep you turning the pages!This is a touching story, and if the romance doesn't draw you in... the relationship of Mike Dolan with his son, Patrick, will. Great story... and as always with Ms. Garlock, great selection of characters!!!
Wow!

"Ribbon In The Sky" is another wonderful story by Dorothy Garlock. If I'm thinking about the characters from a story that I am reading while I am trying to get my work done, then I consider that a book worthy of 5 stars. Other books that I loved by Dorothy Garlock are "Forever Victoria", "The Listening Sky", "Love and Cherish", "Sweetwater" and "With Song".
I couldn't put it down!

This book was the most romantic story that I have ever read. The love these two people feel for each other was written so well that I could feel there pain in their separation, and their joy when they finally accepted their love for one another. The feelings that Mike was experiencing were especially moving.
