Violet is a kindergarten teacher that believes one of her students is being abused by his parents. After hearing a presentation by a handsome social worker, she realizes that her student is being endangered by methamphetamines.

Can this timid teacher find a way to save this child before it is too late? With the help of her bible study group the Planted, she gets closer to understanding God’s teachings and her role, which allows her to find the strength to be bold and save a child.

This is the third book in the Christian suspense series, Planted Flowers. As with the other books in the Planted series, this is more than just a book of mystery and romance. The underlining story has to do with finding faith, strength, understanding, and support while gaining a deeper relationship with God and his teachings.

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

I loved the character development in this book, especially between Dalton and Casey. This was the main thing that kept me reading more. (1 more)
The mystery of who did what kept me guessing unlike a lot of other books. I even took notes and STILL made an incorrect deduction! I loved the surprising twist of who committed the crimes.
The book, as a whole was incredibly fascinating and always threw something in to put you on the wrong track if you're trying to figure out who did what. The idea of someone maybe doing one thing but something not adding up to make that correct always kept me wanting more. I particularly loved the dynamic between Dalton and Casey and I was constantly thinking that they should just get together already! I read the second book but restarted the whole series after taking a long break (evidently too long). I would definitely recommend this series to any bookworm that loves mysteries and thrillers.

I loved and enjoyed this a lot. It was the perfect light and cozy spooky type of read yet it also has deep meaning, great themes and lessons in it as well. It's the first book in what I think will be an amazing Middle-Grade series and the more I read and check into MG books, the more I think that MG is sometimes being overlooked and shouldn't be. Middle Grade is a gold mine with lots of hidden gems in it and this is one of them that had me feeling very satisfied, happy and left with warm fuzzies.
I can't wait to read the next book in this series. Also J. A. White is a fantastic author, I keep falling in love with all his stories and books. If you haven't read this book or any books by J. A. White then you'd better go check his books out!
