This is the second series and eighth book by the dynamic writing duo Peterson and Woodhouse, and the third book in this series.

The Treasures of Nome series is set in the early 1900's in Nome, Alaska. This has been a fascinating series. Woodhouse does an excellent job on historic research and includes a lot of historical facts, places, and occasionally people in her books. Peterson may also contribute to that aspect, but I do know from reading Woodhouse's solo books that she excels on the historical aspect of her novels.

Ever Constant is about the oldest of the Powell sisters, and was as great of a read as the others. There was more focus on sled dogs and the driving of dog sleds in this one, and that has always interested me. Also the ways of doctoring in those days and conditions were definitely of interest.

This IS historical romance, so that is a big aspect of the book. To be honest, Woodhouse's books are one reason I started not minding romance in books. Whitney had two guys interested, and I was hoping it wouldn't be the bad guy she settled for. (Honestly, why did it take 3 books for people to see the truth about him with the name Judas?) :)

I did read the book in one setting, and thoroughly enjoyed it. All three books have a suspenseful element, even though they would not necessarily be classified as suspense. Regardless, I loved this whole series and am looking forward to seeing what is coming next from this writing duo.

I was provided a copy of this book for review purposes. All opinions in this review are my own.

My review contains spoilers from Forever Hidden and Endless Mercy.

The last story in the Powell sisters trilogy was everything I expected and more.

One of the reasons I adore Tracie Peterson and Kimberley Woodhouse' writing is their ability to tackle tough subjects. They're never afraid to speak up about controversial and taboo subjects. And in Whitney's story those are alcoholism, anxiety and grief.

Leading up from Havyn and Madysen's stories Whitney finds herself stuck in some super unhealthy cycles. She finds herself dealing with hatred and anger. She's struggling to heal from her mother and grandfather's passing. As well as accepting that her father is back in her life. And on top of all of that she feels far away from God. Much of the book Whitney feels helpless. No matter how hard she tries she can't find her way back to the loving older sister she used to be. She feels left behind and honestly broken.



Whitney deals with a lot of things I can relate to. I know many of us struggle from anxiety, broken relationships, grief. And maybe even like our heroine you're dealing with addiction. I love all the themes of grace and forgiveness in Ever Constant. Because it really brought me a lot of hope.

Whitney's difficult relationship with God reminded me of my own. But her constant battle to fix that relationship and to work harder at it was very encouraging to me. It seems whenever I pick up a Peterson/Woodhouse novel I'm somehow always struggling in almost the exact same way the main character is. I call that a God thing. I always receive such a huge blessing from these authors and their stories. Whether individual or co-written, I highly recommend any and every book by these authors.

This conclusion to the authors' historical series set in Nome, Alaska, wraps it up well but has plenty of hold-your-breath moments along the way. The trilogy is best read in order, but each novel can stand alone. However, a continuing drama is woven through the stories, with this book featuring the oldest Powell sister, Whitney. Danger still lurks around them, and life stretches the characters as they continue to face challenges that sometimes seem insurmountable. I enjoyed how the various threads wove together with twists and increasing tension. The engaging tale fully engages readers and makes them want to race through the novel to see how things can possibly turn out satisfactorily for all. I wish the series would continue. I received a copy from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

I think this is my new favorite of this series, as it was so easy to get pulled into the story where you were quickly immersed. I loved how Whitney was so vulnerable and real after losing loved ones as I could identify with her hurt and depression. This family is so endearing and they are supportive and strong for each other. It was so inspiring to witness Whitney grow in her faith and see God working in lives. This author team never fails to deliver a story of inspiration that touches you deeply and has you thinking about it for quite awhile. I highly recommend this book as well as the previous books in this series.

What a great series this has been to see what life was like in Nome, Alaska in the early 1900s.

Whitney Powell has been a steadfast fixture in her family. But after losing her mother and then her grandfather, she is barely holding it together. She is also dealing with the appearance of the father she thought was dead and his other family! The authors give a realistic glimpse of the physical hardships of Nome in 1905 as well as the emotional upheaval that has come upon the Powell family. Whitney wants to appear strong but her resolve and even her faith is on shaky ground which results in bad decisions.

Dr. Peter Cameron is capable and compassionate but he, too, is mourning the loss of family members.Whitney and Peter grow closer as they try to cope with an epidemic in town as well as the outlying native villages. In addition, the family is being undermined by a sneaky villain.

The family supports each other and prays for each situation. *It is in times like these that I have to remind myself over and over that God is in control. He does not need my help. But we need His.*

This is a story of suffering and hardships but also of redemption, forgiveness and relying on God. Because God is the only one who is Ever Constant.
