My Thoughts:
I am eagerly awaiting the release of the next book in this exciting series. It is difficult to tell about the book with out giving much of the story away. So at best I am going to say - Read it! I enjoyed it very much. It kept my attention and the plot is exciting and captivating with its surprising twists and turns. Mercy has many lessons to learn.  She also has to learn to trust the Lord with her amnesia and her heart.  There is much for the reader to learn also including such things as love, forgiveness, and understanding. I really enjoyed it, and highly recommend it.

I received this book from the publisher.
