BOOK BY: Susannah B. Lewis
3.5 stars
This was an interesting book, a refreshing look at reconciliation after divorce.
The book opens with a funeral – a surprising choice and one that left me feeling a bit down. However, the event is something that blesses Rae a few chapters in. Having to pick up the pieces of her life, Rae Sutton moves back into her family home with her teenaged daughter and settles in. There’s a lot of focus on how Rae deals with the death of her mother, so at times it’s an emotional read. However, there are enough quirky characters and awkward situations to make the story lighter.
Rae struggles with her faith even though the women in her life are strong in theirs. They provide a lot of truth, and help her learn to live without her mother’s encouragement.
It turns out to be a second chance romance story, though there is another love interest that gets plenty of page time.
I received an ecopy from the publisher through Net Galley. All opinions expressed are my own.
