5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful book!, February 1, 2000

This review is from: Family Blessings (Mass Market Paperback)

Family Blessings is a book I have read 4 times. Even though it is not my "favorite" Lavyrle Spencer book, I seem to never grow tired of it. Each time I read it, I am more in love with Christopher. He has such patience with and love for Lee. He allows her the time she needs to realize how much that love means. I would love to have my own real life Christopher. He really is too good to be true. These two people, with grief, age differences, and family opposition, prove that love conquers all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Family Blessing, an excellent book, November 6, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Family Blessings (Mass Market Paperback)

I first read Family Blessings 2 years ago, and am reading it again for the 10th time, it is really the best Lavyrle Spencer book, although I love Hummingbird and Gamble and all of her books, this story really hits your emotions, the fact that the hero & heroine(Lee & Christopher) have a huge age difference didn't bother me, the story was very well written, it's about 2 people handling grief, how society will look upon you because of the age difference, and how they overcame it to finally be together. Make sure you have a box of kleneex when you read this, I did. I just wish this book was a little bit more longer, so I could have had some more to read. I highly recommend it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart warming, November 9, 2005

I loved this story. Chris and Lee just seem to be a match made in heaven. With all the trials and tribulations that arise it keeps the reader reading. The thrill of the age differences and the fact that he was Gregs best friend makes the story its own uniquie story. I just loved the Joey Reston. I am not normally a romance reader, but this story makes me think twice. Maybe adding some more of Spencer's stories to my wish list.
