This one was great and every time I thought I knew what was going to happen something else happened instead. I loved all of the characters and the story was good.

Learning to follow God's plan

Zoe wants to find her brother who had been falsely accused for a crime in his homeland. He was free now, and she needed to find him and let him know. When Pastor Abe sees that Zoe is about to marry an evil man, he tries to stop her. Since he had just received a letter from his fianceé informing him that she has married someone else, he is heart broken and confused. He saves Zoe from marriage to criminal by marrying her himself. Will the two find love?

This is such a beautifully told story. You cannot help but fall in love with both Zoe and Pastor Abe. The love and kindness for others that they share is beautiful to witness. At the same time, they wrestle with their feelings for each other. Once I began listening to this novel, it was hard to stop.

This was so good!!!

Loved this book it was just an enjoyable and emotional listen even though at times I wanted to scream at the main characters. At then end the book left me feeling good. Love faith based books.

Encouraging story.

I enjoyed the uplifting and encouraging faith journey of the main characters. Well worth the read.
