Autumn Skies is Grace’s story. She’s been such a spunky gal throughout, and she keeps delivering in this story. She’s ready to open her outfitting company and gets her chance when Secret Service agent Wyatt Jennings shows up needing a guide into the back country. Interesting things happen and long ago tragedies weave their story together, which I thought was very cleverly delivered.
Each book has had a mystery that the main characters have solved together. This one is darker than the previous stories, but Hunter does such an excellent job of showing the effects of PTSD and survivor’s guilt, it makes the heavier story more intriguing.
There are plenty of light moments, especially when Levi rushes in to defend Grace’s honor. You can imagine how taking on a Secret Service agent is going to turn out for him, but you’ll love him all the more.
For me this was about finding what’s important and overcoming the bad things that can happen to us in life. They may change us, and we may never be the same, but we can learn to see the beauty God has placed in our lives if we trust in who He is.
In the end, despite the tragedy that brought the Bennett’s back to Bluebell, they each get their happily ever after. I just wish we didn’t have tell them goodbye.
Autumn Skies is another five-star from the consistently excellent writer Denise Hunter.
Have you read the other Bluebell Inn books? Which was your favorite? Did you have a favorite character(s)?
