Release Date: September 27, 2024
Genre: Contemporary Christian Romance

Emma Uranova enjoys her office job until her boss disappears with the investors' money. To avoid the media storm and false accusations, Emma flees to Whispering Creek, Tennessee to live on her best friend' s secluded property. When a temporary position opens up in Nashville, Emma leaves small-town anonymity to pad her depleted bank account. With a handsome new boss and a steady income, Emma believes life is looking up... until she discovers she has transported the scandal in her backpack. Where is God when her life is falling apart? 

Wade Donoven is recuperating from a crash that sidelined him from the family electrical business. Worse yet, his prodigal younger brother is getting the glory for Wade' s accomplishments. Desperation, and physical setbacks, have him agreeing to let Emma help him manage the business office. But when trouble follows her to his doorstep, Wade must make some difficult choices. Sending Emma back to Whispering Creek may unknowingly place the woman he's come to love in danger.

My Thoughts

This is my second book from this author and I am so glad it was the second book from Whispering Creek, not only is this author great and infusing faith throughout her stories but I really enjoyed being back with these characters once more. This time we are returning to Whispering Creek with Emma as she is basically going into hiding with her friend until the scandal from her job dies down. Little does she know that she will encounter Wade, the perfect brooding male character who has some inner battles within himself in dealing not only with his brother but also the recovery of his car accident. 

The way these two characters learned from each other and their walk with God was done so well and very realistic. I think having the side characters Samantha and Cole which just happens to be Emma's best friend and Wade's brother brought the story along together as you need those friends and family to walk with you in your hardest moments. 

Overall I really enjoyed the story. There was suspense, a little bit of mystery and of course romance. If you enjoy these elements in a book then I encourage to grab both!!
