With vivid descriptions of the snow-covered scenery and details about the necessary measures taken just to survive, the story held my interest to the very end. I was personally thankful that I did not have to endure the privations and danger Hope and Micah experienced.<\/p>\n<p>I liked both Hope and Micah&#8217;s characters a lot. Despite her injuries Hope was one determined young lady whose one goal was to see the smallpox vaccines delivered in time to save lives. Micah&#8217;s reluctance to help was understandable due to his own tragic loss but Hope&#8217;s faith inspired him to do what was needed. While <strong>Hope&#8217;s Highest Mountain<\/strong> is an enjoyable story, I also liked how it illustrated the importance of following God&#8217;s call on one&#8217;s life.<\/p>\n<p>I would definitely recommend <strong>Hope&#8217;s Highest Mountain<\/strong> to readers who enjoy historical fiction, especially that which features a wilderness adventure. I look forward to reading more books by this author.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book provided by Celebrate Lit.

With Ingrid dead set on delivering the medicine\u2013with or without his help\u2013he has no choice but to accompany her. As they set off through the treacherous, snow-covered Rocky Mountains against all odds, the journey ahead will change their lives more than they could have known.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-24935\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Beller_Misty-220x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"220\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Beller_Misty-220x300.jpg 220w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Beller_Misty-220x300-110x150.jpg 110w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Beller_Misty-220x300-150x205.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 220px) 100vw, 220px\" \/>After working for 13 years in the corporate world, Misty M.

Old Yeller? Chance and Shadow from the movie <em>Homeward Bound<\/em>? There was something about these dogs that gripped my heartstrings and made me love them as though I\u2019d known them for years. (And, yes, I cried during every one of these movies and books.)<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t get me wrong, we\u2019ve had real dogs I\u2019ve loved too. As far back as I can remember, we\u2019ve had at least one or two dogs, and each one has been my very best friend. They\u2019ve suffered my undying love, even allowing me to dress them up like dolls during my younger years.<\/p>\n<p>But the dogs in my stories have a special place in my heart. Handsome, the sweet little black fluffball in <em>Hope\u2019s Highest Mountain<\/em> is no exception! He was the runt of the litter, and such a dark black that the story\u2019s hero nicknamed him Shadow. You can see the picture that inspired Handsome at the book\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/MistyMBeller\/hopes-highest-mountain\/\">Pinterest page<\/a>. Those eyes! Hard not to fall in love, right?<\/p>\n<p>The more I wrote in the story, the more I enjoyed getting to know this little guy, and I could almost feel his soft puppy fur as he snuggled in close. I completely see why Ingrid (the heroine) is smitten him! As you read <em>Hope\u2019s Highest Mountain<\/em>, I hope you love Handsome as much as I do. Please give him some extra petting for me! ?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-24936\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hopes-Highest-Mountain-banner.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"222\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hopes-Highest-Mountain-banner.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/Hopes-Highest-Mountain-banner-150x56.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>BLOG STOPS:<\/strong><\/p>\n<table style=\"border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/janemouttet.wordpress.com\/\">Library Lady\u2019s Kid Lit<\/a>, October 12<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jennifersienes.com\/blog\/\">Where Crisis &amp; Christ Collide<\/a>, October 12<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.sarajanejacobs.com\/blog\">Sara Jane Jacobs<\/a>, October 12<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/debbieloseanything.blogspot.com\">Debbie\u2019s Dusty Deliberations<\/a>, October 12<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/truthandgracehomeschoolacademy.wordpress.com\/\">Truth and Grace Homeschool Academy<\/a>, October 13<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dkstevens.wordpress.com\/\">D\u2019S QUILTS &amp; BOOKS<\/a>, October 13<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bettimace\/\">Betti Mace<\/a>, October 13<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blessedbookish.wordpress.com\/\">Blessed &amp; Bookish<\/a>, October 14<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/deana0326.blogspot.com\">Texas Book-aholic<\/a>, October 14<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/rebekahsquill.com\">Rebekah Jones, Author<\/a>, October 14<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/5020genesis.wordpress.com\/\">Genesis 5020<\/a>, October 14<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/forhimandmyfamily.com\/\">For Him and My Family<\/a>, October 15<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogginboutbooks.com\">Bloggin\u2019 \u2019bout Books<\/a>, October 15<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/familymgrkendra.blogspot.com\/\">Happily Managing a Household of Boys<\/a>, October 15<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.abakersperspective.com\/\">A Baker\u2019s Perspective<\/a>, October 16<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sorcharaicheal.booklikes.com\/\">For the Love of Literature<\/a>, October 16<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/janicesbookreviews.com\">janicesbookreviews<\/a>, October 16<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mary.a.hake\">Mary Hake<\/a>, October 16<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/abbasprayerwarriorprincess.com\/\">Abba\u2019s Prayer Warrior Princess\u00a0<\/a>, October 17<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/batyasbits.home.blog\/\">Batya\u2019s Bits<\/a>, October 17<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/margueritemartingray.blog\/\">Connect in Fiction<\/a>, October 17<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/connie-oldersmarter.blogspot.com\">Older &amp; Smarter?<\/a>, October 18<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/nannie3.blogspot.com\/\">Jeanette\u2019s Thoughts<\/a>, October 18<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 50%;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/lifeofliterature.wordpress.com\/\">Life of Literature<\/a>, October 18<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/areadersbrain.blogspot.com\/\">A Reader\u2019s Brain<\/a>, October 18<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thebeccafiles.com\">The Becca Files<\/a>, October 19<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blossomsandblessings.blogspot.com\/\">Blossoms and Blessings<\/a>, October 19<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/splashesofjoy.wordpress.com\">Splashes of Joy\u00a0<\/a>, October 19<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tabithabouldinauthor.home.blog\">Through the Fire Blogs<\/a>, October 20<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/kristie-moments.blogspot.com\">Moments<\/a>, October 20<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/amandanicolle.blogspot.com\/?m=1\">Inklings and notions\u00a0<\/a>, October 20<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.simpleharvestreads.com\/\">Simple Harvest Reads<\/a>, October 20<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/daysongreflections.com\">Daysong Reflections<\/a>, October 21<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wishfulendings.com\/\">Wishful Endings<\/a>, October 21<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.joyofreadingweb.wordpress.com\">Joy of Reading\u00a0<\/a>, October 21<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/pausefortales.blogspot.com\">Pause for Tales<\/a>, October 22<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mommiebethers.blogspot.com\">For The Love of Books<\/a>, October 22<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/brittreadsfiction.wordpress.com\/\">Britt Reads Fiction<\/a>, October 22<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lislovesreading.blogspot.com\">Lis Loves Reading<\/a>, October 23<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bigreadersite.wordpress.com\/\">Bigreadersite\u00a0<\/a>, October 23<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/montanamade.weebly.com\/tell-tale-book-reviews\">Tell Tale Book Reviews<\/a>, October 23<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lovewhatyourreading.blogspot.com\/?m=1\">Live.
