The Distant Shore Will Captivate You to The Very End!,
This review is from: The Distant Shore (Paperback)
This captivating tale from Debora Coty has it all--top-notch writing, intrigue, romance, humor and spiritual truths about God's faithfulness. The Distant Shore will captivate you to the very end. This author is one to watch! I have a hunch that even her grocery list would make good reading.

This review is from: The Distant Shore (Paperback)
"The Distant Shore" was an inspiration to me! I lived every moment through the vivid display of the well-formed and lovable characters. The author depicts a gratifying story of love, faith, and adventure through the eyes of a little girl, named Emma-Lee, whom I became undoubtedly attached to by the end of the book. It's truly a heartfelt story that grips your attention from the first word until the last. Definitely a book I will read many more times! I can't wait for a sequel to tear into!
