The Gift of Faith by Kristen McKanagh
The Gift
of Faith by Kristen McKanagh, book three in her
Unexpected Love series, tugs at your heart, holding you hostage until the very
last page; a story I could not put down. Faith
Knapp has returned home in Charity Creek Indiana after finally finding her twin
sister Mercy who had run away. Faith arrived bringing Mercy's baby with her, to
raise while her sister straightens out her life. Faith's main focus is baby Rose;
as taking care of her has given her purpose and resolve. Faith reestablishes
her friendship with Daniel Kanagy, a friendship that brings them together, blooming into a
mutual trust and support for each other. As their friendship deepens,
challenging and unexpected situations rise up. Mercy’s arrival affects everyone
and everything. Faith is overwhelmed with many emotions: Rose her niece, the
feelings she has for Daniel, and her sister. She is trying to figure out G-d's
will for her within the community; a progression of testing faith, and whether
or not she will sacrifice her happiness for her sister. Some of the situations
are painful, and some involve difficult decisions, but all will require a
reliance on faith and trust in G-d. This
was a beautiful story of forgiveness, love for a sister, a sweet baby, and two
people who loved each other.
Ms. Kanagh wrote a
wonderfully sweet and moving story that had me feeling all the emotions; smiling, tearing up, crying
of heartbreak, and frustration with some of the characters. The message of
love, faith, and forgiveness stood strong; making this sweet and inspiration
read one I could not put down, draw me in, making me forget it was fiction. I highly
recommend The Gift of Faith to other
readers.
I voluntarily reviewed a
complimentary copy of this book.
