Happy Monday Everyone :)
I hope you all had a great weekend, and that your week is off to a great start.
Unfortunately, the weekend for me wasn't as great as I was hoping it would be as there ended up being some drama at work that caused some extra stress. However, I was determined to not let it get me down, and continue to shine for Jesus even when situations make it more challenging to do so.
One of my favorite things to do when I'm feeling down or upset from stuff like that is to curl up with a fantastic Christian Fiction title. They always help me to feel more uplifted and motivated, and quite often Love Inspired's are my favorites to turn to for this.
Today I'd like to share a review with you all for an upcoming Love Inspired release that ended up being one of my favorites to date. I can't wait to share with you all what I thought of this heartwarming story.

My Review:
I've lost count of just how many Love Inspired titles I've read and enjoyed over the years, but Allie Pleiter's are quickly becoming some of my all time favorites. I've honestly enjoyed each and every one of the titles I've been lucky enough to read by her, and Their Wander Canyon Wish ended up being my favorite yet. I knew that after first being introduced to Wyatt Walker in Wander Canyon Courtship, that his story was going to be one that would truly tug at the heartstrings, and that was definitely the case. He truly meets his match in widowed single mother Marilyn Sofitel, even though she's exactly what he thought he'd never want in his life.
Over the course of this heartwarming story, the reader is treated to a budding relationship between Wyatt and Marilyn that first starts out as a sweet friendship. Wyatt and Marilyn have both known and experienced great heartache, and they begin to find healing and love through each other and through strengthening their relationship with our Heavenly Father. Along the way, Allie Pleiter throws in many important issues like the stigmas that comes along with stereotyping, the hurt that can come from small town gossip being thrown around with no thought to its consequences, and the hardships that come from navigating learning disabilities, especially when they were never diagnosed.
From start to finish, this one was everything I was hoping for and more, and I could barely put it down once I started. As much as I enjoyed the romance, the small town setting (especially the carousel), and the strong emphasis on faith, family and friendship, I have to be honest and say that it was Marilyn's young twin daughters Maddie and Margie who truly made this one a winner in my eyes. I loved their refreshing views on everything, and the adorable interactions they have many times with Wyatt throughout the course of the story.
I wholeheartedly enjoyed this one, and can't possibly recommend it enough. It was the perfect start to a new series surrounding Wander Canyon, and I can't wait to find out what Allie Pleiter has in store for the residents of this small town in upcoming books.
Final Rating 5/5
