The story has a slow start, but about 90 pages in the story picks up. Abigail (Abby) goes to her Grandmother's home in St.George, Utah to prepare the home for sale. Her Grandmother's recent passing is hard on Abby as she goes through the things in the home that remind her so much of her childhood. Abby has not been active in her Mormon faith for a long time. She is finding her life changing as she associates with past friends that remind her what the gospel truly means to her. Abby gains a new testimony of the gospel and wants to become active in her church again. This causes problems in her life, especially with her serious, non-LDS boyfriend Scott, back in Denver. As Abby grows closer to her old acquaintance Blake Matthews, a young Mormon Dr. in St. George, she is finding she is going to have to make a very important decision. Finding an old pioneer journal of one of her ancestors helps her in this decision.
This book is full of many moments when Abby is touched by the spirit where her testimony grows. It is a very religious book and I enjoyed it very much. It is not an action packed book, but is full of characters growing and changing and learning to love again. Even if you are not LDS, I still feel that you will enjoy reading about Abby's journey of "finding" her true self again. If you like reading Christian or LDS fiction you will certainly love "Voice Across Time".
