Summary
Forever within the memories of my heart.

Always remember, you are perfectly loved.

Bertie Jenkins has spent forty years serving as a midwife for her community in the Great Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. Out of all the mothers she’s tended, none affects her more than the young teenager who shows up on her doorstep, injured, afraid, and expecting, one warm June day in 1943. As Bertie and her four sisters tenderly nurture Songbird back to health, the bond between the childless midwife and the motherless teen grows strong. But soon Songbird is forced to make a heartbreaking decision that will tear this little family apart.

Thirty years later, the day after his father’s funeral, Walker Wylie is stunned to learn he was adopted as an infant. The famous country singer enlists the help of adoption advocate Reese Chandler in the hopes of learning why he was abandoned by his birth parents. With the only clue he has in hand, Walker and Reese head deep into the Appalachian Mountains to track down Bertie Jenkins, the midwife who holds the secrets to Walker’s past.

I thoroughly enjoyed the story, but did not realize it was a Christian book. But it wasn’t heavy in the religious sense, but it definitely made a Christian impression regarding Jesus and God. I did not know that beforehand as I am Jewish. But it was not obnoxiously Overdone.

I loved this book! It's a gripping and touching we'll told story. The story was in fact so good that although I'm not a religious person, I was still able to appreciate the characters faith and religious references in the context of the story.

I enjoyed this book and the characters, I rated it 4 stars because it got a little long in the middle and felt rushed in the last 4 chapters. I would listen to it again.

Beautiful story! It was one that kept me wanting to listen for hours. I love that the author did so much research on the area and period that the story took place in.

What a wonderful story. Written well, and great narrations. This story describes the Appalachian well, although takes place many years ago some places in Appalachian remain close to the same. Truly stepping back in time while in the present. A very heartfelt story, of heartache and love. One can take away that everything that happens is meant to be within our higher power, and life's journey. Highly recommend.
