About this listen
Glenn Ward a war-torn soldier, is facing the unimaginable - his wife is fading away, leaving behind twin newborn sons. Haunted by guilt and consumed by anger, he struggles to find solace in his shattered faith.
Anika, on the other hand, has been plunged into darkness, burying her husband and precious newborn daughter on the same fateful day. Left with a six-year-old daughter to care for, she grapples with overwhelming grief and uncertainty.
But when fate intervenes, an answered prayer brings these grieving souls together. Anika becomes the wet-nurse for the Ward family, offering her nurturing heart to help raise their twins, while also seeking refuge for her own daughter, Delaney, from the shadows of sorrow and fear.
As Glenn and Anika forge an unexpected bond, they begin to glimpse a glimmer of hope. Amidst the pain and heartache, they find comfort and understanding in one another’s shared struggles. But to move forward, they must confront their pasts and embrace the power of forgiveness.
Will they surrender to the darkness that threatens to consume them, or will they choose to open their hearts to God’s healing grace?

great storyline
The AI narrative isn't the best, but I liked the story line enough to listen. I've listened to live readers over exaggerate voices, which is more annoying to me.

What a Jem! And, the virtual voice was pretty amazing too.
A clean and wholesome read. With a great story and wonderful characters. I wasn’t sure about the virtual voice in the beginning but, it was good better then some voice actors. I totally enjoyed the book and I am now a new virtual voice listener. The author knows how to write and tell a story and I’m looking forward to reading/listening to more of her stories.

AI Narration is not the future
This book was a Post-Civil War Christian Love story. The AI narrator did not have storyline pacing, repeatedly read words or phrases incorrectly, and could not read with any kind of appropriate inflection. Due to the narrator issues, it was hard to keep track of who was talking, whether they were just talking, asking questions or exclaiming phrases, and when scenes changed. The book needs to be reread by an actual live narrator.
