WELCOME TO TUESDAY

  Good Tuesday everyone , hope you are all surviving and reading your hearts out . Today we have another new author to me . Nancee Cain and her book THE REDEMPTION OF EMMA DEVINE

                            BOOK BLURB 

     
After the upheaval of being dumped by his girlfriend, David Patterson leads a quiet life as a high school teacher in the small Southern town of Pine Bluff, Alabama. Soon to enroll in seminary, his dreams are within his grasp.

But a chance encounter with Emma Devine changes everything. She’s on the run, desperate, and surviving by any means possible. His pastor’s heart longs to help her—and the rest of him is rather intrigued as well.

His random act of kindness brings them together, but Emma makes an unfathomable decision—one that threatens to destroy two lives, though her intention is to save one.

Four years later, Emma returns, seeking redemption. But can David—whose dreams took a very different course after their last meeting—forgive her and risk losing everything?

                          MY REVIEW 
   What do you do when you stop a shoplifter on Christmas eve . That's what happened to David when he met Emma . a young woman who is on the run and desperate . The pastor in him wants to help the young woman . When the unthinkable happens that puts both of them on a different path. When Emma's decision throws everyone for a loop will they be able to come out . When Emma returns will they be able to work out the past to continue with the future . 
  This book is very well written . I absolutely loved the characters in this book . Emma well lets just say one min you want to wrap her up in a blanket and tell her everything will be ok . At the beginning of the book , she is scared and has such low self esteem . She has been thrown away over and over . She is very defensive and doesn't know her own self worth , To me when she left her baby with David , she was doing what she thought was right . When you read her coming back into David's life she becomes a stronger woman , still a little skittish but she grew up . She still has to fight everyday but she is working on it all the time .
 David well he is such a sweet guy . He is giving and willing to help . He was on the path to be a minister when his life changed . Which I must say he did a great job . I fell for him and his vulnerability when it came to raising his daughter . He is a little over protective and everyone loves him. 
   This is the first book I have read by this author and trust me I will be reading more . She had me feeling so many emotions . I laughed and I cried and I felt a whole lot of love for the characters .  I wanted to hug all the characters and tell them it will be ok . The author writes with a passion that comes through on the page. I think the best part of this book is that the good guy is a good guy . He isn't a pompous arrogant man . He is humble and sweet . You will love these characters trust me . You should add this series to your reading list for this winter . You will love them
