Much better than the second book. The characters here were fresh and just different enough to make it interesting. My biggest problem with the second book was that it was too much like the first.

I enjoyed revisiting Lydia and Alix in this book. I was slightly disappointed in Alix's story simply because she seemed like a whole different character. I liked that she was so nonjudgmental but the instant forgiveness just seem a little far-fetched. So I couldn't help rolling my eyes when her mother-in-law to be confronts her about being good enough for Jordan. But it seems like this book was all about forgiveness. It was also nice to see that Jordan wasn't so perfect all the time.

I have to say I was right there with Margaret wanting to hurt the guy who got away with hurting her daughter. What I couldn't understand was why all the other characters couldn't see where she was coming from and spouted for her to let go and again with the theme of forgiveness. It would have been nice if someone was on her side even if it was just to let her know they wanted to do the same thing but know they can't because of x amount of reasons.

Colette's story was interesting and different. I liked it. Yes, it was predictable but I didn't mind.

If you have never read Macomber I recommend you read this books in order. She has a lot of repeated information so you don't necessary have to but it gives you a better appreciation for reoccurring characters. Also she is very Christian and might bother some people. But she isn't preachy about it. She just makes it part of these people's lives. A very quick read and light romance with some tears thrown in.
