Mallory Hale, a thirty-four year
old congressional staffer, is carrying marked-up papers from the Clean Energy
Bill when all of a sudden a gust of air causes them to fall from her
grasp. Mallory panics as it is her job
to make sure that no one sees this bill during the edit stage. As she is sprawled out on the floor trying to
protect the papers she is approached by a striking man named Daniel. Daniel helps Mallory pick up the papers and
she is quickly lost in his eyes.
Daniel also feels a
connection with Mallory and does not hesitate to ask her out when the two run
into each other a second time. They quickly
fall in love and Mallory finds herself in an interesting position. Daniel is offered a job in the small town of
Moses Lake, Texas. He wants Mallory to
join him and his young son Nick in this new adventure. Is she ready to leave everything that is familiar
behind for the sake of love? Mallory
says “yes” to Daniel’s marriage proposal and suddenly finds herself in a
vehicle traveling across the country with her new husband and son. When they arrive Mallory quickly learns that
this new life is not exactly what she dreamed it would be. Join Mallory on her journey in this new town
and be there as she experiences the unraveling of God’s plan for her life.
I enjoyed this book and was
captivated from the beginning. My only
disappointment was the ending of the book. Throughout the book there was a lot
of suspense surrounding Daniel’s new boss.
I found myself disappointed with parts of his story as I did not feel
that the suspense that was built was in line with what ended up happening. I guess I was expecting something a little
more dramatic. Overall, I still thought
the book was well written and I would definitely recommend this book. I also look forward to reading more from this
author.
