I absolutely loved this book. Travis's wife, Emma Lee, had never been able to give him a son like she'd promised. Now he had to tell her, the love of his life, about the son he'd known he had with another before they'd ever started dating. Not only does he tell her that he has a son he's kept a secret for years, but the boy, Cody, now 12, is in trouble, and Travis plans to bring him home to live with them that very day!
What follows is a story full of doubt, shame, pain, fear, disappointment, regret, guilt,  repentance, acceptance, forgiveness, friendship, salvation, and joy. All with a strong undercurrent of love and family, along with the wonderful grace and perfect planning of God.
The author did a terrific job of portraying the mixed feelings of first love. Difficult topics like miscarriage, a child conceived out of wedlock, alcoholism, and abuse are touchingly handled with honesty. The few instances of danger will get your heart pumping, and the steadfast devotion and faith in God that's witnessed throughout the entire novel will inspire you.
I never read the books in a series out of order, but I won this copy, so it's the only book of the series I've read/ listened to. It works very well as a stand alone (although there is a little teaser at the end). However, I enjoyed it so much that I can't wait to go back and start from the beginning of the series. Congratulations to Carlyn McAdoo for a job very well done! The narrator, Jeremy Francis, did a great job of conveying emotion as well.
