Adventure is what's missing in her life, decides competent, no-nonsense Lacey Robbins. But Jack Dalton, the attractive man she literally runs into at the skating rink, isn't exactly what she had in mind. Neither is using her accounting skills to untangle the financial mess Jack's troubled brother has left him. Jack is attracted to Lacey, but he has all the responsibility he can handle-certainly too much to take on a woman raising her sister's four children! But when Jack and Lacey finally learn to surrender their worries to God, surprising things happen-and they find themselves in the midst of the greatest adventure of all.
Jack is a jewelry designer, and Lacey is an accountant, taking care of her nieces and nephew after a tragic accident involving her sister and brother-in-law. Thinking she will start a new tradition for the year, she decides to begin having adventures; enter Jack. I really enjoyed the idea that she is the one who has the strong faith, and Jack realizes that he wants what she has. This book shows the need to trust in the Lord, especially during circumstances we do not understand, but it is not too preachy. The reader is introduced to the concept of night terrors, and I think they are explained pretty well. There are quite a few characters in the book, but I think all of them are fleshed out enough that they enhance the story, not take away from it, including Jack's mother whom we do not meet until the end.

Wonderful book. Lacey kept her life organized and under control. Between working from home as a cpa and raising her nieces and nephew. Until she meets Jack Dalton. Then she learns the true meaning about letting the Lord have control.
