    What a delightful surprise at this sequel. The Civil
    War destroyed so much. However, this novella does a great job in reconciliation.

    Christmas is a time for families but in the aftermath of the war, it was a time of mixed emotions for families who lost loved ones. Such a family is this one but they are in store for some Christmas miracles that are a heartwarming conclusion to The Soldier's Secret.

    I enjoyed both the book “The Soldier’s Secret” and this book made a good finale to the story. I must disagree with the author about the reason for the Civil War. It was about slavery.

    I was so excited to see there was more to The Soldier's Secret. I absolutely loved that book but want to see what happened after that ending. Simple Blessing gave me that and it was so perfect! You definitely want to read this once finished with The Soldier's Secret. I highly recommend.

    A lovely, heartwarming epilog to Ms. Osborne's exciting Civil War story, A SOLDIER'S SECRET. Both are well worth reading!
