Hard to put down

Wonderful, I one of the sister's I could identify with her situation. I was in an abusive relationship, my ex-husband abused me once. I stayed for 4 days and once I left I never went back. I a man and in this day and time woman hits you once, they will hit you again. Gifts and promises don't mean nothing to them. This is She Bell's second book I have read and she is now one of my favorite author's.

Good read. Shannon was a single mom with a ton of issues. Jenna was willing to lose everything for a lie. April was married but divorced and had to leave everything behind. Samantha hides a secret so deep in her heart. These young ladies had a connection with one another and wanted to live their best lives. There are times when the devil will do any and everything from keeping a person to be successful. These ladies continue to hold to God’s unchanging hands, and he blessed them.

Difficult

First time reading the author's writing. I was engaged in the stories and I believe the story to be edifying. I liked the characters and the message was direct and straightforward.

The spelling and grammar is atrocious! That fact made the narrative very difficult to read. Get you another editor! With good editing your thoughts will be successful and not jumbled before publication.

The Devil Though He Won

Wow this was an amazing story . These four ladies went through the good,bad and ugly. The men in their lives were no good ,it's only when someone start treating their exes like real women they want to behave like they are the boss of these ladies. But the one thing that keep these ladies was love and fellowship. They were always at the Altar or on their knees praying for real love . Lovely Christian Romance . Good one She Nell

Please use an editor \proof reader the grammatical errors makes it difficult to maintain understanding.

I wouldn't recommend the book because of the grammar. There are so many characters with issues if you don't read the name at beginning of chapter you will find yourself asking who is this. If you read this book and its for book club keep a notepad near.

Sisterhood

Good read about a group of women who met at church group & supported each other through the good & bad. All four women, single parents with different personalities & life situations. I liked how they supported each other & their spiritual growth throughout the story. Another good read by this author.

This book is full of inspiration and transparency! I could really relate to all of the ladies in the book! Shows you just how God will never forget you and how He is the one that orchestrates the plans for our lives! Kudos to She Nell and a job well done!

I didn't see the story going the way that it did. I am so happy for happy endings. I was really concerned a few times. But She Nell pulled through and gave a very enjoyable read.

Storyline nicely written as these ladies dealt with their various situations. While there were many trials and tribulations, their Faith gave them the strength to continue. Good ending

Not easy to follow

With so many characters it was not easy to follow the individual stories. Walking in their purposes was a blessed touch.
