The title sure does fit this book which is full of
surprises, is spiritual but not over powering, a clean read, excitement,
learning to forgive yourself, those around you, learning to love in so many
ways, along with starting over and hopefully able to love again. There are a
few things I never saw coming along with a thrilling read with an important
message.
This was the first time I have listened to any of Mr. Jordan’s
work. I was very impressed from his even tones to his character voices. I had
no trouble feeling what each character was going through. Mr. Jordan had no
trouble delivering the important message that the author gives in a way that
pulls you in as it breaks your heart. He had no trouble carrying off female or
children voices they are a delight that makes you smile as he puts so much
emotion in them that you can really feel the excitement, pain, sorrow and thrills
as he delivers an outstanding audio. There are no background noises, no repeat
of words, no changes in volume, if any breaks were taken I could not tell. This
is a very clean, clear and crisp audio that I got lost in from the deliverances
to the plot it was an outstanding listen. I found his tones to be right on the money
delivered with such emotion and feelings. His male voices are just as wonderful
as his female ones. This was an outstanding audio that I just loved. The
narrator has a very pleasant voice that you can get lost in making you forget
you are listening as he pulls you in to the plot. I look forward to listening
to more of his work.
What really pulled me into this story is the plot and the
message it sends. All people are equal and should be treated the same. There are so many powerful messages here that
are not over powering but meaningful. To tell you too much would give the whole
surprise of the plot away. I loved how the message of God is delivered in a
meaning way but not over powering. It is part of the plot but not the big part
which makes it very nice to hear. I went through my childhood with a
grandmother who went overboard with religion that it is nice to really get the
meaning and not feel overpowered. I find Ms. Goss books to be a delight with
meaningful message you can relate to that really pulls you in without getting
heavy. In this one she gives you one man who makes many mistakes that caught up
with him, making him make more mistakes which he cannot forgive his self for. One
lady who tries her best to make him get over his past in return giving her the
love she so wants. We all make mistakes yes God forgives but the hardest part
is forgiving ourselves. This was a delightfully clean romance that has meaning,
ups and downs, which will just about bring a tear to your eye with one small child
and all she goes through. It is a story you have no trouble relating to as I am
sure some of you have gone through something of this nature yourselves. I
totally enjoyed this from start to finish and can’t wait to listen to the next
in this series.
