The year was 1753, and the lines of separation were firmly drawn. The French had named the region Acadia, their "beloved home, " but the British came prepared to do battle for the new continent. The settlers were either French or English, and though their villages were but a stone's throw apart, most could go an entire lifetime without speaking to someone from the other side. But a chance encounter begins a friendship that will propel two young women on a journey from which they can never turn back...

Janette Oke and T. Davis Bunn did an excellent job writing The Meeting Place. They kept me guess throughout the book. It is truely one of their best works yet. I loved the story of these two young women whose hearts were knit together by God's love. It is an accurrate account of how racism and hatred hurts those who are innocent. I can't wait to read the sequel to see how the story unfolds.

Bunn & Oke write well together, and I think this is the best book they have written together so far. I am anxiously awaiting the next book. I would definately recommend this one!

I just finished this book and thoroughly enjoyed it! Oke and Bunn really made their characters "live" this time. Set in Acadia in the 1750's, the story revolves around the conflicts between the French and English. When a Frenchwoman and Englishwoman accidently meet in a meadow, they begin a tentative friendship which grows as they discover how much they have in common. As each one grows in her relationship with God, they become closer friends, and soon involve their families, which brings difficulties for all involved. The story was entertaining, of course, but also challenging; how is my relationship with God and with my friends? I'm already waiting (im)patiently for the sequel, due in early 2000!

A Wonderful Book!
I think that this book is the best that Oke & Bunn have written so far. Especially as a young mother myself, I was drawn deeply into the lives of the young women in this... Read more
