Because of our involvement with foster care, it was believable. Because of our relationship with the Lord, it was also believable. We have been risk takers when listening to the Lord instead of others. Having a supportive family willing to work through the problems is possible. The concept of love being a decision is vital. His willing to allow God the opportunity to bring it to pass takes a person who has seen God’s faithfulness. These things our family has experienced. Everyone has hard times but with God good can come out of hard times. The author did a great job weaving the story. Jo Ann
This book was amazing it was hard to put down. It was a good read.
I loved this book. The story kept moving and the author did not drag things out to make it longer than it needed to be.
Although it was predictable, it was a good, fast, entertaining read getting there. It gave me a peak into how important trust, and commitment are in relationships.
Good read. Great Christian prospective!
Good read. Made me think about what I would do in this situation. I loved the Christian references.
Excellent book to read. It was so hard for me to put down. Really loved this novel.
This was a good read!!!
good clean read but not totally realistic. I would recommend it but think some one of an unconditional giving and loving christian mindset would enjoy more than others.
This is a sweet read. I loved the characters and the feel of family.
Loved the message in the book! It also came with a great song recommendation for hard times and a delicious apple crisp recipe! I highly recommend this book AND the song and recipe.
I loved everything about this book except the ending. I liked the general idea of the outcome for the characters, but not HOW it ended. It felt too abrupt and anticlimactic to me. An epilogue might have helped a little. Something to let us see that the characters really were weathering their storms long term.
Very good book.
good
Not as realistic as some that I have read. Good easy reading to relax with.
The novel was well written. Made you stop and think, what would you have done if that had happened. It showed how some people feel that they are all alone and much take care of everything themselves.
