My Thoughts
If you have read other books by Janine Rosche, you will find that this one is very different. This is definitely a women's fiction novel with a touch of romance. I'll be honest and say that it took me a few chapters to truly get into the book. It was hard connecting to Lori. She is a character that has suffered tremendous loss and some memories of the past are completely forgotten to her. It was interesting to see how her character developed throughout the story. Lori's daughter Avery is also struggling with a lot of emotions but I think she was a bit more relatable than the main character.
Like I said this is a different book for this author. The topics of that were mentioned may triggers for some but I think the author did a great job at handling it tactfully. She definitely helps you bring forth your feelings wether good or bad towards certain characters.
The only thing I needed a bit more of in this book was a stronger faith thread. There were SO many opportunities I felt like were missed to expand on God's understanding and working in these characters lives. The characters do attend church and they mention someone praying but that was it. So that is my only negative if you see it that way. Again totally my opinion.
Overall I thought it was a good book and very well written. Being it was something new for me from this author I think she did a very good job with the topics she wrote about. If you enjoy Women's fiction then I suggest you grab this one!
I received a copy of this book from the publisher. I was not required to post a positive review. All views expressed are only my honest opinion.
