I did not want this series to end. I just want to move to Tennessee and be with each of these characters. I particularly enjoyed that Lee's character continues in this book. It was fun to see a softer side to the "bad boy" Lee.

So incredibly good. Her stories grab a hold of me and shake me to my core. Every. Single. Time. Whenever I finish reading one of her books, I feel like I’ve been through the ringer of a full range of emotions. Her books are so perfectly paced, the relationships slowly unfold and come together. The wording is mature, yet never boring. Her writing style is contemporary and down-to-Earth, yet holds at a high standard. Every story holds a message of inspiration, hope, redemption, forgiveness, and godliness. These are far from being preachy. Make no mistake, these are Christian stories and the faith that inspires them is not hidden, it is very clearly written. Her stories are edgy, the characters are real. The romance is hot, the writing is clean, free from sex outside of marriage and there is no swearing. This author is a master at her craft and every piece she writes is amazing. I can’t say enough about them. I give her work the highest praise and hope she will go on blessing us with her gift of writing. Do yourself a favour and read this latest book of hers! You won’t be disappointed.

Romance, clean; Christian; Series but stand alone read Lee and Bellamy/Belle's story was such an interesting and fun addition to this series. Lee was a secondary character in the first book in this series, seeing his fall, and his redemption was a gorgeous read. Bellamy's past, her deep hurts, her faith struggles, and trying to protect her heart from any new hurts, along with Lee's character that is so opposite made for a perfect foil. Lee's journey to change, awareness, and his faith journey has so many facets. I loved the motorcycle group, his friends and employees, it all helped his persona and character development. His change, his heart softening, just so deeply moving and glorious in the telling and evolvement. Lee is really the strongest character in this novel. I liked Bellamy, but her story didn't resonate as deeply with me, her 'stuck' on her dead husband backstory, while so tragically real, it was Lee's change and evolution in the novel that resonated with me as real, and true. Beautiful, magical read. I love this series, and this novel is a strong addition to it. I am selfishly hoping for another book, I just want to stay immersed in it!
This series is why I reserve my five stars for the true standouts.
Until I Do ripped my guts out and made me take stock of my marriage and remember all the reasons why marriage is an investment, not a theme park ride. It was flawless.
Until I Don’t set my heart pounding on an adventure while feeling both characters’ fears and resistance and then opening my eyes to more than I wanted to see. Loved it.
Until I Decide? I’m having a little trouble forming words after finishing. Heart pounding chemistry and tension, gripping emotions that aren’t always pretty, and a hero who proves his worth so thoroughly, you’re left breathless. Grief, despondency, self loathing, and bitterness...yet as God works through these characters’ lives, they learn that every single thing, including forgiveness, healing, and love, is a decision.
What I appreciate about this third book in the Resolutions Series is the fact that the antagonist from book 1 becomes the protagonist in this book. Clearly the author believes in second chances, and by the end of the book, you will be believing this too. Lee shows that fame is hard on a person. Yet behind his flaws is a person who means to do better. Learning to follow God is what helps him to realize that grace is everything and that he will never be worthy enough on his own. Bellamy is the very unlikely heroine. But I like that fact because it makes her relatable.
This book is definitely a romance, but it also shows the importance of community. We need each other! The older men in this book are quite fun. I also liked the fact that the pastor also demonstrated grace and truly seemed like a genuine person. This was a wonderful conclusion to the "Resolutions" series.
Well, I am happy and sad. Happy that Lee Sutton got his own story and boy was it a doozy. And sad that these amazing characters are finished. I can't say enough how much I have enjoyed this series. This book summed it up beautifully. We are all flawed and need forgiveness. All we need to do is ask. God is so good like that. He forgives us when we ask. Let me also say that not only was the message wonderful, but so were the characters and the romance. The ending was very much a happily ever after. My favorite kind of ending. I am a true fan of this author. I can't wait to see what is next down the line. Until she decides I'll be waiting.
First, let it be known I love T. I. Lowe’s writing. All her books are fabulous. This book does not disappoint! She took Lee and made me love him! It reaffirms my belief everyone had a story and you never know what’s beneath the surface. Seeing Bellamy heal from a place of pain and falling in love with Lee was so enjoyable to read. This book reminds me of Psalm 147:3 - He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds. Great read to enjoy again and again.
Tee-hee-hee. And lol. No, Until I Decide is not about the cat named No-Tail, but the cat sure does add a certain something to Lee and Bellamy's story. I love that Lowe took a much-disliked character from the previous two books in The Resolutions Series and makes him human in a way that is exactly what Christ demands of His followers. Love. Forgiveness. Making allowances for one another. I wonder what the Men's group in this book would think of the gossipy older gals in the Carolina Coast series.... 😉
Life is messy as Bellamy and Lee can attest to. Choices are made and lives are changed. But those changes do not have to end in turmoil. Their story is like a tornado that blows through town but leaves one house standing. The chemistry makes for deep affections but just as passionate fights. The rubble left behind their individual struggles makes their bond stronger and fiery. I read this one in a day and I do not feel an ounce of regret. It was spectacular!
Until I Decide is a heartfelt tale of redemption, forgiveness, and love. Lee Sutton has lived as the bad boy for too long, but now it’s time to turn his life around. Placed under house arrest and assigned community service at a church, he discovers fresh perspectives and meaningful friendships. Lowe masterfully portrays a believable transformation of the heart. This book is the third of a series, but also a perfect stand alone.
T.I. Lowe gives a beautiful story about two broken souls ,that with God's love,forgiveness and redemption,find love. The storyline was amazing filled with a wonderful cast of characters. The story is recommended for those who love Christian romance with a strong inspirational message.
“Okay, God, you want it then you can have it. I can’t carry this any longer.”
Life lessons resonate throughout this delightful story with loveable characters only T.I. Lowe can bring to life. This was a wonderful trio of books leaving this reader hungry for more . . .
It is so easy to give this book give stars. I loved everything about it. I particularly liked meeting the real Lee Sutton. This was a story of forgiveness, redemption, healing, and love.
This is the 3rd book in the Resolutions series, but can easily stand alone. I enjoyed all 3 books, but this was my favorite. These characters...I just love them. Do yourself a favor and read this wonderful story and meet these broken characters, and live their healing journey with them.
I wasn’t sure if I could buy into Lee’s redemption and wasn’t sure if I could like whatever woman deserved him. This is me hanging my judgmental-ness up for everyone to see.
I had to re-read books one and two and fell in love with the characters yet again. TI Lowe doesn’t disappoint in her weaving of the story, character development, and unapologetic discussion of God’s grace and salvation. One of my favorite authors!
Lee and Belle has past they both have to deal with in order for them to move forward. Life is like that. The right way to heal is through Jesus Christ. Read this wonderful book to see how their healing progresses.
Book 3 in the series. In this story we met up with the bad boy from the first two books. Can a leopard really change his spots? See what thrusts Lee into the life of recently widowed Bellalmy and the road to recovery they discover together. Oh, and I loved the epilogue.
Beautiful love story about brokenness and redemption. Bellamy's "setting his face on fire" is hilarious. It's A beautiful ending to their story when two years later the love is still going strong.
4.2 stars Lee was such a scoundrel that I didn't see how he could turn into a decent person let alone a serious boyfriend for Belle, but it worked out as I knew it eventually would. This was an overall enjoyable read.
