I first read this book and a few others in the series more than a decade ago. From what I can remember I enjoyed this one more when I was in my late teens, early 20s than now. It was a decent book. It sets the next book up nicely. I’m looking forward to seeing if they all lead into the subsequent one as well as this one did.

Love the focus of this book - divorce and a second chance.

[Crystal · Rating 3 out of 5]

Good clean read. Reminded me of an old Lifetime movie only with Christian elements. The author did a great job setting the stage for the next story. Can't wait to read it.

I recieved this book as a gift and wasn't sure about it at first. After reading it, I ended up searching for the next book so I could continue on with the series. Clean, Christian based books that are full of romance, but also teach a lesson on life.

Ok book. Kinda expected a little more "something special" from this author. A realistic story-line however (although very sad!) as pastors are not immune to the pulls of the world either.

Marilyn is divorced and healing, meets a pastor with a troubled past. Decent Christian fiction.
