I think it is because the first series I read by her looked at a family of five kids and how their relationships changed as they became adults. God helped me consider what that looked like. My husband is the oldest of six kids. Over the course of our marriage they have all become adults. We read books because they help us to make sense of our own lives--as Leland Ryken says.
I find that amidst the stress of life I can't handle heavy books filled with drama, but I can read light Christian Fiction.
In the latest series from Susan May Warren, she writes about a group of rescue workers in Montana. The last installment came out in January--Troubled Waters.
The series began with a question mark about the relationship between Sierra and Ian Shaw. This book finally brings them together. The rescue squad's helicopter crashes. So, Sierra decides to fundraise to help replace the helicopter. Sierra heads out on Ian's yacht with a couple of his friends only to encounter some "troubled waters". This story falls in line with the three books that precede it. This book can stand alone, but it makes much more sense in light of the series. I'd recommend starting with book one of this series (Wild Montana Skies). This book flows well, with fun characters that easy to imagine. It keeps going at a steady pace and never holds you up for too long!
Ian and Sierra have been two of my favorite characters of the books and I looked forward to this book. It didn't disappoint! If you enjoy contemporary Christian fiction, I'd recommend this series!
Please note that I received a complimentary ebook copy of this book for review from Revell Books, but these opinions are entirely my own!
