Just okay
I liked the first book better and this one just seemed to drag out. It also ended in a kind of cliffhanger and there is a book three but not until winter 2020. I'll have forgotten this book by then. The heroine drive me nuts. Just tell him you love him. It was just silly. And what is going on with his Dad the mayor and Craig, the vile pig? Something is off but I am just glad the hero and heroine got back together. He was a very good man.

The Aftermath of the Hurricane
Although one part of the story had a happy ending, there is evidently a lot more that remains to be told before it's really over. I am frustrated with the length of the story with so many questions remaining unanswered. In spite of my frustration, the author has a good plot. She has plenty left to write yet.

Excellent and so real as a Texas resident
I love this series. The characters, the plots twists and turns and going on to the next book. So realistic on the damage of a hurricane too.

Spellbinding
The characters and this story has me thoroughly captivated. I will comment on something that I didn’t think quite fit in this book ... when the deputy arrived ...how was he allowed into town when C-Mer employees weren’t?

The Story Just Keeps Getting Better
The story is so deep and well written that details are not boring but instead paint a thorough picture of the world of Judah and Paisley and the family and characters in this tale of heartache, frustrations, secrets and the restoration of love, promises, relationships and property. Ready for the next part of the saga.

Great read
A book which shows the struggles that often occur in marriage and relationships. But through the storms, a believer can come out the other side with a restoration of faith, love and forgiveness when they a rely on Jesus.
