Is Siobhan too far gone to respond to the song of a God who's calling her back to him?

When a new customer brings a badly damaged violin into Siobhan Walsh's shop, it is exactly the sort of challenge she craves. The man who brought it in is not. He's too close to the painful past that left her heart and her faith in shambles. 

Matt Buchanan has had a rough start as the new worship pastor. A car accident on his way into town left him with a nearly totaled truck, and an heirloom violin in pieces. When he takes it to a repair shop, he's fascinated with the restoration process--and with the edgy, closed-off woman doing the work. As their friendship deepens and turns into more, they both discover secrets that force them to face past wounds. And the history of the violin reveals more about their current problems than they could have ever expected. 

On the nineteenth-century frontier, a gruesome tomahawk attack wiped out most of Deborah Caldwell's family. Her greatest solace after the tragedy is the music from her father's prized violin. Given her horrendous scars, she'd resigned herself to a spinster's life. But Levi Martinson's gentle love starts to chip away at her hardened heart, until devastating details about the attack are revealed, putting their love--and Deborah's shaky faith--to the ultimate test. 

Full of forgiveness and the message that no one is too damaged for God's healing touch, the final book in the split-time Sedgwick County Chronicles will thrill fans of Rachel Hauck, Lisa Wingate, and Kristy Cambron. 

My thoughts: I have enjoyed the previous books in this series and looked forward to the return to Sedgewick County! This story can stand alone, though there are some mentions of the characters from the previous two books. 
I love how the violin plays a part in both of the time lines! With being married to a violinist (and, all of my children playing the violin) I can appreciate the care and repairs that the violin goes through. I love how the author used it to tie together the two time lines.
The story is well written, with plenty going on between the two main characters, the one in the past and the one in the present. I thought that the author did a wonderful job of tackling some difficult subjects with grace. This is a wonderful addition to the series!
I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.
