When Hope Blossoms by Kim Vogel Sawyer
Amy moves with her children to a small town in Kansas. Back home, there is speculation that her husband's death was not an accident, so she needs a fresh start. Amy comes from a Mennonite background, one her new neighbor, Tim Roper, left many years ago. He doesn't want any reminders of his past, but those memories have a way of surfacing. Can God use the unlikeliest of people and circumstances to bring healing?
I found this book to be mediocre. It had a hard time holding my attention. When I started reading this book, I thought the love interest would develop much earlier. What was there seemed to be a little contrived, so I did not like that. However, I enjoyed the characters, mainly Amy's children and Tim. Amy was to be a main character, but I felt like most of the book focused on Tim and the children instead of her, so I did not feel as much of a connection to Amy as I anticipated.
This book has been reviewed for Bethany House Publishers.
