Story
Twenty-one-year-old Rebecca Hardin is determined to help provide for her family, living a hardscrabble life in 1910 in the Southern Kentucky hills. Her brother, Andy, died when he became lost in a cave five years earlier, and Rebecca feels responsible for his death because she'd told him to "go, get lost". The best wages at Mammoth Cave are earned by the guides, who receive a salary plus tips from the guests. But only men are allowed to be guides, so Rebecca cuts her hair, dons some of Andy's clothes, and introduces herself as Reb to the estate manager.

Least favorite of Kim's I've listened to thus far.
What disappointed you about A Promise for Spring?
Characters weak, immature, and bickering until the end.
Who would you have cast as narrator instead of Barbara Caruso?
I wouldn't have cast anyone else, I like Ms. Caruso's work and was glad to see she was going to narrate before I downloaded. But a lot of the time her English/England accent sounded more Irish. Still good work.
You didn’t love this book... but did it have any redeeming qualities?
Loved Tildie's character and the strong faith in God she represented. She was my favorite character in this book.

Good depiction of life on the Prairie in the 1800s
I usually really like this authors stories. And although in the end, this story turns out like I need a romance to turn out, getting there was very painful. There was conflict in almost every scene, and that is pretty heavy for a moderately light romance even a period piece.
The dialogue is very good. The narrator is very good. The anxiety that each person produces Inham or herself due to jealousy and miscommunication were hard to handle.

for junior high school age females
This seems to be a preachy romance novel aimed at junior high age girls. If you fall into that demographic, it may not be bad. However, I found it juvenile, repetitive, and boring.
