  <default_description>A man with a painful past.  A child with a doubtful future.  And a shared journey toward healing for both their hearts. It begins on the shaded town square in a sleepy Southern town.  A spirited seven-year-old has a brisk business at her lemonade stand.  Her latest customer, a bearded stranger, drains his cup and heads to his car, his mind on a boat he's restoring at a nearby lake.  But the little girl's pretty yellow dress can't quite hide the ugly scar on her chest.  The stranger understands more about it than he wants to admit.  And the beat-up bread truck careening around the corner with its radio blaring is about to change the trajectory of both their lives. Before it's over, they'll both know there are painful reasons why crickets cry...and that miracles lurk around unexpected corners.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[My twin sis recommended this book and mailed it to me with high praise. Once I got into, I was captured. I wept and I laughed out loud. But it was EXTREMELY hard to get into. Literally, it took at least 10 chapters to get good. The author had a way of keeping me out of the loop with every step of th...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/63462655">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[This was an interesting book with great character development.  It was written from the main character's perspective, Jonny Mitchell.  During the book he moves from the present back to episodes in his childhood to allow you to understand why he is living life bound by his past.<br/><br/>The author...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51325703">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[We read this book in our ward's Enrichment Book Club.  I liked it a lot.  There are parts of the plot line that are unbelievable, but I was nonetheless moved and, like the other characters in the book, captivated by Annie.  The author draws you into the plot by wrapping a lot of mystery around the m...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/70273238">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[ When I purchased this book I had no idea that it's main focus and story line deals with something our family has lived with for 24 years.  The technical descriptions are fairly detailed and, for the most part, very accurate.  Many of the emotions were skillfully articulated.<br/><br/>It is rare a...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/51143248">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[It took me two months to get through this book, but mostly because I had to pause after three paragraphs to cry through a whole box of tissues.  This is an incredibly sweet but heart-wrenching story that had me hooked from the first page.  I would not recommend reading this on an airplane or on the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/46339847">more...</a>]]></body>
