A Mother's Strength by Allie Pleiter Review

 Good Morning Friends :)

I hope you're all doing well, and I want to thank you all for joining me for another book review here on The Preppy Book Princess.

I'm really excited for today's review guys. Allie Pleiter is one of my all time favorite Love Inspired authors, and I always love when I get the chance to read one of her upcoming titles.

I'm excited to get to take you all back to one of my favorite fictional towns (Wander Canyon) in today's review, and so let's jump right into it.

My Review:

I have such a soft spot for the town of Wander Canyon and the heartwarming group of people who call it home. I always get excited when Allie Pleiter chooses to return her readers to this favorite fictional town, and this beautiful story of redemption, family and God's never ending grace was exactly what I hoping for and have come to expect from this author's stories.

I found myself pulled into this story pretty quickly, and found myself sympathizing with Molly, Sawyer and especially Zack. As someone who knows first hand what a lot of these struggles can feel like, I thought the author did a fantastic job of giving these issues an authentic feel, while still properly demonstrating the struggles and frustrations surrounding those who experience them and their loved ones. 

I'm someone who really enjoys when healing is a large focus of a story, and the journey that Molly and Sawyer go on throughout the pages of A Mother's Strength had me both tearing up and not wanting to put the story down. I found myself rooting for them as a couple from the start, and I loved how much Zack added to the overall story and to the developing romance. 

While you definitely can read these stories out of order, they are all such fantastic stories that I don't recommend missing out on any of them. Start at the beginning, and find yourself falling head over heels for Wander Canyon and it's many caring, compassionate residents who do their best to shine a light for Jesus in their day to day lives.

Another great read from Allie Pleiter, and another highly recommended book from me.

Final Rating: 4/5.

Thanks so much to Allie Pleiter for providing me with a complimentary advance reader copy of this novel to read and review. I was not required to give a positive review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Thanks so much for reading guys! Have a great rest of your day! :)

First Line Friday: Courting Mr. Emerson

Happy Friday Everyone :) Since it is Friday, I'll once again be participating in First Line Friday which is hosted by Hoarding Books .  For this week, I'm going to be sharing the first line from Melody Carlson's newest book, Courting Mr. Emerson. About The Book: When the fun-loving and spontaneous artist Willow West meets buttoned-up, retired English teacher George Emerson, it's not exactly love at first sight. Though she does find the obsessive-compulsive man intriguing. Making it her mission to get him to loosen up and embrace life, she embarks on what seems like a lost cause--and finds herself falling for him in the process. A confirmed bachelor, George vacillates between irritation and attraction whenever Willow is around--which to him seems like all too often. He's not interested in expanding his horizons or making new friends; it just hurts too much when you lose them. But as the summer progresses, George feels his defenses crumbling. The quest
