This is an engaging story with interesting main characters, both trying their best to trust God through difficult past and present circumstances. Their relationship starts from an awkward friendship, thrown together in a traumatic encounter, and grows into a sweet romance, a highlight of the story. The mystery kept me guessing, with some twists, and didn't disappoint with an action packed ending.
It was inspiring how both Dr. Drake and Jessie reach out to different people they encounter, and share their faith. Loved how Drake honors and cares for Jessie, being gentle, yet protective. Jessie's friendship with Monica, using her sign language skills, was wonderful to read about; it brought to mind the verse about being ready to give an answer for the hope we have in Christ both in season and out of season. The unfolding of God's plan through their friendship was wonderful.
Enjoyed the colorful characters of Ms. Delane and Ruby. Hope they return in the next book, along with Drake's buddy Tim.
Recommend for readers who enjoy inspirational, romantic suspense.
