Who is the MYSTERY Healer concealed in the Great Smokey Mountains of East Tennessee? Why does he need to keep his identity a secret?
Marni Granger is a young woman who lives at the base of the mountain. As a child, falling against a hot cooking pot, she burns the side of her face.
Being teased at school and later stared at as an adult, Marni remains isolated away from society with her grandfather. Her one friend is a half wolf dog, rescued by her as a pup. Marni would like a life similar to other young women, yet she can never see this happening.
Heading off to the base of the mountains to pick berries, she wanders up and becomes lost in the dark. Her pet disappears after she falls asleep. Marni is terrified and cries out to the Lord for help.
A mysterious woman in white calls her name then leads her to a large cabin on the plateau. Here she will meet a handsome man and the hidden surgeon who performs reconstruction operations, disallowed in 1885.
Will there be life changes for this young woman?

I loved the way the author described the Smokey Mountains in the 1880s, describing the scenery and portraying the superstitions of mountain folk. The story pulled me into the lives of Marni, her grandfather, Tucker the dog--then later the romantic developments between Marni and Daniel (Dr. Dupont). Their love and commitment carried them through hardships and their reliance on God brought everything to a satisfying conclusion.
I closed the book with a euphoric feeling that I was part of the Dupont family. living in the mountains of East Tennessee in a simpler time, and loved unconditionally through God's grace.
Kudos to this author for her vivid description and the loving atmosphere she so effectively portrayed ."

Simple, yet inspiring story providing excellent setting and character development into which events are added to keep the interest of most readers.
Such a clean written story regarding faith and inspiration. Set in the Smoky mountains in the 1800’s, Marni, a young woman who has a scar on her face and is self conscious about it, comes in contact with a mysterious man, Daniel, who is a doctor. Will he be able to fix the scar on her face while keeping his work a secret? Will their friendship turn into more based on their trust with each other and will the consequences forever change both their lives? This is a new to me author and I enjoyed her book.
All words and opinions are my own. I was given a complimentary copy of this book from NetGalley for my honest opinion.
