"Give yourself time. He’d been enjoying the slow pace of his relationship with Belle. It had taken him weeks and weeks to kiss her, and now that he could do that, he wasn’t jumping to the next step. Truth was, Jace could still hardly believe that she wanted to be with him. Him, who still felt so broken sometimes, so unworthy of the attention of a beautiful woman like Belle, so stuck on what had happened to him in the past." Jace.

"“Sure.” He slipped his hand into hers as they started walking, and Belle’s worries calmed. She wasn’t even sure why she’d been worried. Because he hadn’t texted back on Friday night? Because he hadn’t come to church?"

This is a fast-paced christian romance with enough suspension to keep you guessing. Though sometimes it slows down. Especially in the middle of the story, and the storyline becomes stretched out.

Jace was jilted at his wedding day and was hiding away on the ranch. As the rancher manager, his responsibilities and interaction with the rest of the cowboys made him a loveable and believable character.

Belle was running from the city after a harsh dismissal at work. Both their trust is shattered. To pick up the pieces is not so easy. She had to get her confidence back and never lost her spark. The one thing that attracted Jace to her. When the two meet, you know that these two are made for each other but have a past to deal with.

The back-and-forth tug of war didn't help and their faith was tested as they try to manage the pain and hurt they both experienced.

At times, the soul searching was dragged out a bit, with too many repeats of the same scenario that slowed down the reading experience.

Both had to make a choice and trust God to make the right decisions. Belle, whose desire it was to begin her own designing company, had a few hurdles to face.

The relation between them had some beautiful moments and Jace really tried very hard to get past his own objection to accept Belle in his life.

Definitely a good read with exceptional moments.… (mais)
