Irene has written a beautiful book encompassing the joy of relationships. Touching an array of emotions, this book is one that is a must for all to read.

Words cannot describe how good this book was. Again, I wish I could give this book more than five stars - it was THAT good...there were times the book was so intense, though, that I had to stop reading for a while...

The heiress is Allison Sayre. She's your regular all-American girl. She has a Mom, a Dad, a sister, and a brother. They all love each other and get along. Allison is just beginning to get over the loss of her fiance who broke up with her two or three years before...Then something happens - something happens that serves as a wedge between Allison and her mother; and it effects the entire family...Allison becomes rich after her rich husband leaves her his entire estate, his business, and a legacy...

Then we have Benton Lockhart. Benton has been running the book printing company for the last year since Allison's uncle took sick. He is named in the will, and Allison is hopeful he is the nice, young Christian speaker she heard from the Crusade she attended in Indiana. He is, but he isn't. Benton is a different person. He is angry, has rejected God, and has a lot of mystery surrounding him. He begins falling for Allison and is physically attracted to her - they become physical - but he won't release his heart to her...

The concepts of God, prayer, and forgiveness are absolutely one hundred percent WONDERFUL in this! I think a preacher could even use the concepts in a sermon and turn many lives around. The revelations revealed near the end touched my heart. The secrets surrounding the reason Allison received the inheritence and the reason Benton is so closed up are heart wrenching!!!

I LOVED this book! Anyone who is struggling with the unfairness of life and what seems to be unanswered prayers should read this book! This is a true romance. Both Allison and Benton had to come to terms with their faithlessness and make sacrifices - become humble - before they could indeed come together...

This is a must read for EVERYONE!!!

Oh, and the romance wasn't have-bad either :-)
