Resumen del Editor

Allison was sure God would save her marriage and her husband - but neither has been saved yet. What has become of the promise Allison once believed in?

Tony Kavanagh had been Allison’s dream-come-true. They were in love within days, engaged within weeks, married and pregnant within a year. Her cup bubbled over with joy...but years later, that joy was extinguished by unexpected trials.

The day Allison issued her husband an ultimatum, she thought it might save him. She never expected he would actually leave. She was certain God had promised healing - but it became clear she’d misunderstood.

Now, living in the quiet mountain cabin she inherited from her Great Aunt Emma, Allison must come to terms with her grief and figure out how to adapt to small-town life. But when she finds a wedding dress and a collection of journals in Emma’s attic, a portrait of her aunt emerges that takes Allison completely by surprise: a portrait of a heartbroken woman surprisingly like herself.

As Allison reads the incredible story of Emma’s life in the 1920s and 1930s, she is forced to ask a difficult question: Has she really surrendered every piece of her life to the Lord?

Drawing from her own heart-wrenching story of redemption, A Promise Kept is Robin Lee Hatcher’s emotionally charged thanksgiving to a God who answers prayers - in his own time and his own ways.

"A beautiful, heart-touching story of God’s amazing grace and how He can restore and make new that which was lost." (Francine Rivers, New York Times best-selling author)

Very good book.

This is a great book. I wanted to listen even when I was not able to. I would wonder what would be happening with the story as if it was real life. This Author is very good and I would recommend her to anyone.

Excellent

I was certainly surprised by this turn. Being entangled with someone with an addiction is painful and complicated. And done feels done and—relief. Robin did an excellent job of sharing the thoughts, feelings and conflicts.

Well written story of the faithfulness of God

I read a number of reviews before purchasing this book because I am a very picky reader. I often find Christian fiction not well written, extremely predictable, and sometimes even cheesy. So, I admit to some skepticism purchasing this one, but there were enough glowing reviews that I decided to try it. it was very well done. From a structural standpoint, the story flowed well and the shifts between the characters of Emma and Allison were not difficult to follow. The ending was not abrupt or rushed and transition points after a time lapse were smooth as well. From a story standpoint. I liked it. It took a very difficult subject and addressed it with grace and truth. The characters and their struggles were real, but so were their victories and joys. I wasn't entirely sure how it would end until the very end. I could guess, and would've guessed correctly, but I still wasn't super sure. I appreciate the author's vulnerability as she wove her own story into the lives of Emma and Allison. Overall, a beautiful read and a reminder that God answers prayer, though not always like we would except.
