Claire Summers works hard as a teacher, mom to a precocious
11-year-old daughter, and owner of a house that's falling apart. One benefit to
living in her neighborhood is her new friend, Dr. Maureen Chandler. Her
daughter's good deed for the cancer survivor impacts their lives beyond her
wildest imagination.
Keith Watson's life revolves around work, work, and more
work. His early years haunt him and keep him trapped in a prison of his own
making. A compassionate boss and a thoughtful little girl change everything.
This new-to-me author created a sweet story with adoption
and a spiritual theme intertwined. It's a great spring/summer read, filled with
hope and transformation. While I prefer something with either historical or
suspense elements, it was a satisfying read.
I'll be checking out more of this author's books. Five
stars!

Hi Susan - I can quite see why this book with its story line would entice ... and if I was into that sort of reading ... I'd be there too ... lovely review for us - thank you .. Hilary
This one sounds lovely, Susan.
I like both, depending on my mood and stress level of my life at the time. Right now I'm reading a James Rubart book which is thought-provoking. But I love his writing and stories, so it's worth it!
