Product Description A CIRCLE OF COURAGEOUS WOMEN DISCOVERS THE MEANING OF INDEPENDENCE, FORGIVENESS, AND LOVE Ruth Martin had a dream: to become an independent woman and build a life in southern Oregon for herself and her children. But when her friend Mazy’s inaction results in a tragedy that shatters Ruth’s dream, Ruth must start anew and try to heal her tender wounds.
Her friends are also moving on. Mazy wrestles with her understanding of what faith and family really mean; Tipton discovers that marriage requires more than she’s ready to give; and Suzanne’s challenge is to keep seeing with new eyes. Together, the turn around women travel to arenas of untested promise where they’ll find a hope that sustains them and relationships they’ll cherish all their days. THE FINAL BOOK IN THE KINSHIP AND COURAGE SERIES

Sorry it ended... February 23, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This books does wrap up the series and puts a finishing touch to most of the characters. I would have loved for there to be another book showing these women 5 years down the line. The story was wonderful with a happy ending (hooray that Zane Randolph finaly gets his due!), and sheds some light to the beauty the settlers found in the beautiful Oregon territory.
Jane...keep them coming!
Looking for 3rd book in series, What Once We Loved May 10, 2004 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
So, far I haven't found the 3rd book in the series by Jane Kirkpatrick, The Kinship and Courage Series, What Once We Loved. I did read the first two, All Together In One Place, and NO Eye Can See. I thoroughly enjoyed both and found it easy to picture in my minds eye the country as it was at that time and the courage of those women. We so often hear of what the men went through and forget there were quite often women and children at their sides helping out or left on their own to make it die along the ways. Were so fortunate to have all the modern conveniences of todays world, I marvel at the strength it took all people to make it to where we are today. It was nice to take a peak back through time and have a series that's so down to earth, where one wasn't afraid to voice one's opinion or lend a helping hand or two. Personally I think it would make a marvelous movie.
Lost Interest May 26, 2002 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
I loved Kirkpatrick's first book in the series, All Together in One Place, enjoyed the second, No Eye Can See (although not as much), and lost interest by this third one, What Once We Loved. I don't even think I'll finish it. The characters and their relationships are beginning to be too sappy for me.
Outstanding May 26, 2002 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This 3rd book of the trilogy drew me into the story and the lives of these strong women from page 1. How they overcame the tradegies they faced and prevailed was heart warming. In a present-day time of easy fixes, the obstacles these women overcame shaped their personalities and gave them amazing strength to go forward with their dreams. It's about dreams. And it is about not ever giving up. Ever! Wonderful!
What once we loved May 20, 2002 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
The theme through this book is one of redemption. The characters all come to realize that life is best lived with someone who truly cares about you and your independence. Not having read the other two books in the trilogy, I didn't know all the background. However, I don't think that hindered my understanding of the plot and the characters. The characters are well written and for the most part, very likeable. The only thing that bothered me was that at times, the timing of the book seemed off. I never really knew what events were happening in the past, and somethings seemed to be skipped over. For instance, this big secret was going to be revealed, and the author cut to a different story line; when the first story line is picked back up--the secret isn't told--you only get their reaction. Parts of the book just seemed jumpy. I would recommend this book--either on its own or as the last book in the series.
