Lorri Dudley crafted a great story about forgiveness, love and finding yourself amidst adversary. I enjoyed reading about the characters in this book, they had some good strengths and weaknesses. Both of the main characters were well developed and grew throughout the story. Honestly, at first, I was not sure if I particularly liked Georgia as she seemed to be a weak character, however, by the end of the book she turned out to be pretty good. I also liked Harrison, he was sure of himself and a strong character right from the get-go, a great dad and someone who wasn’t afraid to have a little fun.
I liked the setting of this story as well. Lorri Dudley’s descriptions of island life, the people, animals, and climate made for a vivid backdrop to this story. She described it in such a way that you could almost taste the salty are or hear the thunder roll. I think it would have quite a change for someone coming from England to the small island of Nevis. It made me want to visit

What a cute story!!
 Amazing what a little forgiveness and grace can do for us. Jennifer Beckstrand weaved a great story dealing with the subject of an unwed mother who is Amish (Which you don't hear of often, even though I am sure it happens). Armed with a pair of rambunctious twins and an older brother who feels responsible for them this story has no end of mischief and woe. Jennifer Beckstrand gave a good story with quite a few laughs throughout and expressed the reasons for needing to forgive and extend grace rather then shun very well. The only thing I couldn't believe was how a mom could be that slow to catch on (you'll understand when you read it) but it turned out quite well in the end.
 I give this book a 4 out of 5 stars for the creative twins who somehow managed to steal the story.
I volunteered to read this book from Kingston Books (Zebra) in return for my honest feedback, the thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own,
