About the Book:
Cassie's dream is about to come true. She's marrying her best friend, the love of her life. She will never be alone again. But when Zack fails to return from surfing, Cassie's safe world comes crashing down around her and she begins her struggle anew. Haunted by her conviction that her late grandmother left her something that will help her, Cassie discovers hidden "treasures" in the house she inherited. With the help of her stepmother, Cassie unlocks the secrets of her grandmother's journey and along the way finds the ultimate answer for her own life.
My thoughts:
This is an excellent story that is so relatable! Even though it is set in the 1960's and is the second book in the series, I found that it was easy to relate to Cassie and her struggles with fear over being abandoned as her wedding day approaches. Even though her fears stemmed from her childhood, I felt like the story could be related to anyone who has struggled with fears over what will happen in the future. I also liked how she comes across mysteries from her family history. This is a great series to pick up! (I do recommend reading the first book before picking this one up)
I received this book from Celebrate Lit in exchange for my honest review.

About the Author:
In 2015, Barbara Bras left her career to pursue her dream of serving God. She believed that her first step was to share the amazing story of God’s blessings in her life. Wrapped in God’s Grace, A Life Rediscovered does so through a trio of narratives. It begins with the story of her son’s miraculous adoption and the challenging years that followed, her grandparents’ remarkable survival in Armenia, and her own quest for purpose and love. Once written, Barbara realized her life’s new purpose. Captured by St. Paul in 2 Corinthians 1:3-4, she views her writing as a tribute to the God who comforts and strengthens us in hardships and trials, and as her mission to encourage others. Her first novel, She Who Knows, A Tale of the Heart, seeks to inspire and encourage. The sequel, She Who Knows No Fear: Another Tale of the Heart, released in December 2017.

thank you for being a part of the tour. wow this sounds wonderful. that her and her stepmother are close enough to work together like this is wonderful. so many times i read how the step mother is not close at all. i love this cover.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your comments Lori, much appreciated! I agree, although I haven't been a stepmother I am sympathetic to the stereotype many have of them!
