One cookbook connects them all...
Kristen ~ Book Nine in a string of heartfelt inspirational stories, featuring different women throughout the decades from 1920 to 2020.
Kristen Borstad has always taken the scenic route through life. It’s 2002; fresh out of university with a master's degree in English literature, she returns to the cozy ambiance of the local bookshop she's worked at throughout college.
When the bookshop's owner presents Kristen with an opportunity to take charge for a few months, she accepts. As she delves into the daily responsibilities, Kristen begins to discover her passion for the job.
Amidst the book-lined shelves, Kristen hires an employee who ignites a flame within her heart. As their friendship blossoms, Kristen grapples with conflicting emotions, unsure if the love she's found is just a delightful distraction or a signpost pointing her toward the future she truly desires.
Will Kristen realize that her dreams have been waiting for her right in front of her eyes? Or will she continue her quest for fulfillment, forever searching for what might already be within her grasp?
Join Kristen on a tender and uplifting journey as she navigates the crossroads of life, faith, and love. In this heartwarming tale, discover the extraordinary potential that lies within embracing the present and opening one's heart to the unanticipated blessings of life's sweetest surprises.
My thoughts: Kristen is at a cross roads in her life, with having graduated and trying to figure out where she wants to go from there. I love how doors open for her to find out some things about herself and discover where her talents lie. While the romance could have used a little bit more fleshing out, I appreciated the focus of her journey being Christ centered and even Josh's approach to their relationship. This is a delightful story! I look forward to reading more of the books in the series, since I love that they span so many different decades.
I received this book from Just Read. This is my honest review.
