Love has left him…
Logan Urquhart regrets promising Jonas that he will give him anything for his fifth birthday. The fortune he has inherited enables him to buy whatever his son wants, including a whole toy store chain, pony rides to last a lifetime, and even entire schools he would attend all the way through university.
But all Jonas wants for his birthday is to be with his mom, whom he hasn’t seen in a while. “Dad, you promised.”
Logan has no choice.
It can’t be too bad. It will only be for seven days. After that, he’ll go home to Savannah, Georgia, and she’ll go home to wherever. End of story. Or is it?
Love has returned… Not!
Marie Bouchard would love to see her son again, but not her ex-husband. Their two-year marriage had been nothing but constant quarreling and arguing and fighting, so much so that she has needed counseling to get over that awful phase of her life.
Why on earth would she want to go back to that kind of negative environment?
Well, he looks more mature these days. No, not the boy. The father.
Besides, their son is turning five. She would do anything for little Jonas, as she has always done—including having given up custody so that her son would be safe from her line of work.
Dare she take a week off to make her son happy?
All seems peaceful, until Marie notices people behaving strangely around her ex-husband and their son…

Wait For Me ( Vacation Sweetheart Book 3 )
By; Jan Thompson
Wait For Me is book three in Vacation Sweetheart Series. Ms. Thompson writes a good , clean Christian Romance with some suspense. This is a family love story and a cruise to Alaska. I love the story and the characters, both are well written. A single dad divorces and makes a promise to his young son. Can he keep this promise? Should he have made it? I was drawn in at the start and did not want to put it down.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book, but was not told that I had to give a positive review. All opinions are my own.
This is a good second chance romance & mystery. Also good about a father that doesn’t refuse his son whatever he wants. Loved the mystery & how Logan & Marie get back together. It’s just a good book all around. I received an ARC. This is my honest, voluntary review.
Wait For Me by Jan Thompson is a contemporary Christian romantic suspense. It is the third book in the Vacation Sweethearts series but can be read as a stand-alone.
Jan Thompson has created a cracking story that entertains the reader. She reveals the heart of God to love us and to be in control of all our situations. “Did we forget that God is ultimately in control of our lives?” When our world is in turmoil we need to remember that nothing surprises God. He knows our ending from our beginning.
Prayer is important. It should be as natural as breathing. “Praying was an automatic thing.” We need to make prayer our default setting and not our last resort.
God is the God of second chances. Whatever we threw away in the past can be resurrected under the loving care of God.
We need people to keep us safe. Within the novel there is fast paced action fighting to keep characters safe. The reader is reminded that God fights for us. His weapons are prayer and His Word.
We see sacrificial love in action within the story. Characters do what they need to in order to keep loved ones safe no matter what the personal cost – financial, mental and physical.
Jan Thompson has created well rounded characters. Her five year old was realistically portrayed with his me-centred life. I loved the banter about him between his parents.
Wait For Me was a perfect blend of romance, suspense and family. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Why not grab yourself a copy today?
I received this book for free. A favourable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.
Logan doesn’t know how he can grant the promise he made to Jonas. Marie is surprised when Logan tells her about the promise he made to their son. Can Logan and Marie make it together for a week? Jan Thompson is a amazing Christian author. She will have you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what happens next with Logan and Marie. I am honored to be part of the beta team for this amazing author. I would give this book a higher rating than a five star review if I could.
3 stars
I purchased a copy of the novel Wait for Me: Family Vacation in Alaska… Inspirational Second Chance Christian Travel Romance Novel with Suspense (Vacation Sweethearts Book 3)by Jan Thompson and this review was given freely.
Divorced wealthy American single father Logan Urquhart must risk his heart and his son Jonas’s safety to honor the promise to include his Parisian undercover Interpol ex wife Marie Bouchard on Jonas’s Alaskan birthday cruise. Some prayerful self examination is intermixed with family dysfunction as well as danger and intrigue containing violence. The plot is excellent but the delivery is a little awkward.
