I received this book from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review
Crossroads by Cathy Bryant
A Miller's Creek Novel #6
ISBN: 9781941699058
Paperback
Book Description:
A former soldier battles for the soul of a prodigal...
After a devastating divorce, a bitter single mom and
atheist starts her own real estate company in the nostalgic and picturesque
town of Miller’s Creek, Texas. Then her young daughter’s disturbing symptoms
lead doctors to discover that her leukemia has relapsed. With her new life now
turned upside down, Mara Hedwig struggles to keep her business afloat. And her
daughter’s worsening condition forces her to rethink her beliefs about Carter
Callahan and his God. Will Mara make the return to Christian faith in the face
of life’s greatest challenge?
An
ex-military operative struggles with the return to civilian life while coping
with his rebellious teen-aged daughter. During a house-search, Carter meets
Mara, a headstrong Realtor who wants nothing to do with his God. But when
Mara’s little girl is diagnosed with leukemia, the clock begins ticking for him
to convince Mara to return to a life of faith. Just as he seems to be making
headway, circumstances beyond his control throw his efforts into a tailspin.
Can Carter learn to rest in the sovereignty of God?
Review:
This is the first book that I have had the pleasure of
reading of reviewing of this author’s. I have to say I was pleased with this
book. After reading this book though I want to now go back and now read the
rest of the Miller’s Creek series. Even though I have not read the rest of this
series, I was able to read this book as a stand alone novel. The characters are
very well developed and could be any one you know they are so real to life.
This is a Christian fiction book and there is a lot of faith in this story
which was nice. The way this author tells this story is like she is painting a
picture in your mind. I do have to warn this that this is an emotional book so
you may need to have your tissues handy. Another thing that I liked is that there
are some twists and turns which in my opinion keep the book moving right along.
All in all this is a very good book.
