MY REVIEW
I was glad to read This debut read from author Regina Jennings. The story is one that drew me in from the beginning. The characters are so real like, and the plot will keep your interest with the twists and turns in the story. Rose and her mother in law had a difficult time after moving back to heir ranch in Texas. Their only way out was to trust the Lord. With Rose’s beauty, she attracted many men that seemed willing to help, but they were not all honorable. Rose has many tough decisions she has to make, and I wanted to pray that these decisions would be the right ones. I really liked and enjoyed the Texas spin that Ms. Jennings put on the story of Boaz, Ruth and Naomi in the Bible. This brings the Biblical story to life in a way I never thought. It was good to read Ms. Jennings take on what Ruth and Naomi’s story could have been like!
This book was given to me by the publisher to read and review and post what I think about the story. This review offers my opinion only. The 5 Star rating is my opinion of how well the story flows, how well written, and just my overall opinion.
