Natalie has always intended to take up her father's ministry and carry on his legacy, however, life has gotten in the way, and instead, she finds herself in a dead end job, until the company closes. Now, her ex- fiance is back in town, and needs her help. At the same time, the perfect ministry opportunity presents itself. Can she balance both?
What a surprising book! I didn't expect much going in, either from the cover (sorry! Cover snob here), or the description, but there was so much more to this book than I thought I was going to get. This story was definitely deeper than the outward appearances gave it credit for; these characters struggle with hard things (affairs, alcohol, single-parenting, custody issues, and more), and it does not all work out perfectly in the end. Yet, even in the hardness, there is hope, and there is love, and there is sacrifice for each other. All of which, in the end, points the characters and the reader to the One who sacrificed for all.
I give this book 5 stars. It's unusual to see so many real-life struggles in a Christian fiction book, especially ones that, like real-life, don't magically work out by the last page. I will definitely be looking into other books by this author!

I received a digital copy of this book, via NetGalley, from the publisher, in exchange for my honest review.
