The story was a part 3 of 3. I liked the characters, I could picture the story in my mind, and there is a bit of Christianity interwoven. I enjoyed the reintroduction of characters from parts 1 &2 at the end, but this could be read as a solo. The romance was light and clean. I will look at reading other books outside this series by this author!

A Hope Remembered is the final book in the Of Love and War Trilogy, and it is just as satisfying a read as the other installments. The story takes place in 1920 in the Lake District of England and tells the story of American Nora and aristocratic English Colin. Nora’s fiancé Tom died fighting in the war and her parents succumbed to the Spanish flu epidemic leaving Nora alone and struggling to care for her family farm. When she receives news that her great-uncle has died and bequeathed his home and sheep farm to her, she sees it as an opportunity to start fresh. So she leaves all that is familiar and moves across the Atlantic.

She meets Colin, the local baron’s son, when she seeks the keys to her new home. Colin also carries the weight of the war on his shoulders. His older brother Christian was shot down in battle leaving Colin the heir of the title, a responsibility he neither wants nor feels up to filling. But, he promised his brother he would not turn his back on his home and now finds that the estate is in financial trouble, relying on him to “save” the family home and social standing by marrying well. His father has his mind set on building a luxury hotel and needs an influx of money to proceed. He feels Nora’s land is the perfect location for the hotel and assigns Colin the task of wooing Nora in order to influence her to sell.

What starts out as a reluctant mission rooted in family duty soon becomes complicated for Colin because the more time he spends with Nora the more he likes her, and she feels the same. However, given their different backgrounds they try to suppress their feelings for each other. While he tries to find another way to solve his financial dilemma, Nora discovers some family secrets of her own and is threatened by someone.

I have enjoyed all of the Of Love and War books, and A Hope Remembered is as good as I had hoped. It is a sweet romance that deals with grief and moving on after loss and the idea that love can be found in surprising places. Nora and Colin are loveable characters and realistically drawn. How can you not root for a man who gives a girl a puppy in an attempt to ease her loneliness? I appreciate that they started out as friends, and that friendship seemed authentic. I rooted for them to overcome their differences from the beginning and was not disappointed with the story’s resolution. The supporting characters are equally interesting, and they and the village setting are charming. I hear the Lake District calling me to visit someday.

Ms. Henrie weaves an entertaining tale, inspirational without being preachy. Her stories are well researched and feel genuine to the time period. I look forward to reading more. I recommend A Hope Remembered to her fans and to those looking for a heartwarming, uplifting romance.

4.5 Stars / Top Pick

I first fell in love with Henrie's books during the reading of a holiday novella that was based as part of the author's Love and War series. Since that time I have found myself hooked and I simply cannot get enough of the memorable stories and the lives the characters that allow for this series to be so remarkable.

So far this book is my favorite from the series. I enjoyed all the previous books and yet there was something about Nora that just stood out. I greatly found her likeable as a heroine. I admire her determination to start over in both life and in love during the aftermaths of one of the most destructive wars in history.

Colin, the hero was to be as equally favored. I thought he was an honorable man who desired Nora's love and his own chance at a happy ending. Both of these characters were too familiar with the loss and heartache of war and I rooted for them to find their union in love and thankfully they did.

What stands out beyond all else with Henrie's novels is the fact that she dares to create stories of a time when most feared hope was lost and she dares to show the readers the aftermath of war and the lives that are left crippled by the devastation. I respect the author for these traits. It makes the stories heart wrenching and meaningful without crossing the line of a historical novel that contains little or no romance. In my opinion it is in fact the romance that brings these stories to new life.

Whether or not you like war torn stories I encourage you to read this series. It’s beautiful. It's remorseful and it will allow you, the reader to remember that even in a time when all seems lost we always have something to look forward to.
