I really am enjoying this collection of stories. All four stories are linked together by the characters. It's like a series, but shorter and all in one book. Interesting characters and all contain a love story.
Texas Charm consists of 4 novellas. Each deals with an individual whose prior choices had devastated their lives. The uphill battles each face were made easier once the realization that the only one who with total control over anyone's life is God. Through a renewed relationship with God, each were able to change their wayward lives and strengthen their families as well as themselves. Truly a positive and uplifting reading. Anger, hatred, greed, pride and alcohol/drug abuse are very destructive tools utilized by Satan to destroy one's self and families.
Not one but four stories in one book, each continuing the story line showing the reader how God helps us in our everyday lives if we only ask for his help, listen to his advice and then follow through. Goodness and love prevails.
