Laura Scott is a master at telling a story. If you haven’t read this book you should. In fact, read the whole series it is excellent!
Exceptionally soft, serene and touching motivational story of anticipating and achieving love and trust!
If you like heartwarming Christian fiction, you’ll love it!
Loved it. Would recommend it to anyone!!!
I really loved this book. Characters were charming. I believe anyone would like to read this book.
Excellent story. Great plot, very real characters, and well written.
Derek and his daughter were in an accident that bought him in contact with Julie through the hospital. When Derek wanted to leave the hospital but had no place to stay, Julie opened her home up to them and their journey began. During the course of their journey Julie learned that Derek was not being completely honest with her and when everything is placed out into the open, it is Julie that gives him guidance into what he really needs to do. This story will draw you in and have you backing Derek to gain what is his rights with his child with out being bullied by his ex’s parents.
I love a happy ending even if you know it’s going to happen. And I love the Bible and prayer sprinkled in with real life.
Sweet romance. Julie really takes a chance when she allows Derek to move into some of her property with a young daughter. Helping each other, hearts open to a chance at love.
Not perfect but beautifully written with highly relatable characters. Trusting was difficult for all the main characters, but through leaning on God they worked through their challenges and got their HEA.
This was a good read. Both the protagonists are well portrayed. Typical of American culture premarital sex is portrayed as acceptable. The ending would have been more satisfying if one was informed of what happened to Portia’s inheritance from her murdered husband. It sounded that it was quite substantial.
Really good book, couldn’t put it down.
Exceptional book
It’s a good story but there are times when the thoughts and concerns of the characters are repetitive. Easy and quick read.
