"Absolutely amazing book; one of my all-time favorites! It was the type of book that hooked me on page one and kept me anxiously reading until I reached the very last page. Powerful story of keeping the promises we make to God and to our loved ones in the face of heartache and painful life circumstances. One of its main premises is trusting that God knows best, and despite our own desires, coming to realize that His grand plans for our life are the best."
— Jessica (5 out of 5 stars)

" All in all this was a good book. I got the point. However, I feel like there was a lot of time leading up to the climax and then it just ended. When it was over, I just felt bad at the end. "

" I get what the author was trying to do- show the reader that Christ is just waiting to give us all He has if we would just come to Him, but it the story she used to show this didn't really work for me at all. I disliked the characters- they all acted unbelievably. "

" SUCH a good book - could barely put it down! "
— Angie, 11/24/2012 -
" Quick read - very typical "Christian fiction" book. Overall good book, predictable and very "stretched" story line. But liked the deep Christian theme running through it and scriptural references and depiction. "

" Heartwarming story about twin girls who are deprived of their inheritance. Relates to our inheritance from our Heavenly Father and how we sometimes refuse to accept it because we think we have to earn it. Terri Blackstock is a great Christian writer. "

About Terri Blackstock
Terri Blackstock made a decision more than a decade ago that permanently changed the direction of her writing career. She had grown to become an award-winning secular novelist of over thirty published titles. And yet she was miserable, and her career left her unfulfilled. One night she decided she would never again write something that was displeasing to God. Since then she has written more than thirty novels, many of which were New York Times bestsellers, and was given the Retailers Choice Award in 2007 for best Christian novel in the general fiction category for Night Light. She lives in Mississippi with her husband, Ken.
