Building a family

GIVEAWAY
SLATTERY, JENNIFER
BUILDING A FAMILY

Can love for two little matchmakers unite their reluctant hearts?

Worried that Noah Williams is still the reckless bull rider she remembers, Kayla Fisher is convinced he isn't the right person to care for their orphaned niece and nephew. Now she's back home, determined to fight for custody. But Noah is a changed man, and he intends to prove it. When Noah and Kayla start falling for each other, could raising the children together be the perfect solution?

My Review:

Gah! There's so much to say about this book but I don't want to post any spoilers. Rule of thumb is to not give away anything that isn't mentioned in the synopsis but that means...gah!!!!

Let's just say there's an extra depth to this Love Inspired contemporary romance. Noah definitely isn't a reckless bull rider any more. He's learned some tough life lessons and is walking by faith now. As in following God's plan for his life, not his own. Even when it's hard and doesn't make sense and things seem impossible. His steadfastness is one of the most alluring things about him.

By contrast, Kayla seems...distracted. She's made her career her focus and even though she's come back home, she's still majorly driven by her business. But as she gets to know her abandoned niece and nephew, her focus is torn and it's just plain confusing. Plus she tends to make hasty judgments -- especially about Noah at the start which complicates things all the more.

Slattery has created a wonderful, caring community who exemplify what being a good neighbour is all about. These secondary characters brought vibrancy to an already compelling read. If you like a romance that touches on serious subject matters in a positive and uplifting way, then Building a Family might just be a good fit.

    2. Ha -- maybe you could start a bibliophile exercise program with books as weights and...oh, wait...that probably wouldn't work We'd all get distracted and start reading our weights and that would be that. Bwahahaha!
