From This Moment by Kim Vogel Sawyer

About the Book:

Growing up in the foster care system, Jase Edgar always dreamed of one day starting his own family. But his fiancée's untimely death shattered his plans. Moving to Kansas and serving as a youth minister should be a fresh start, but he can't seem to set aside his doubts about God's goodness long enough to embrace his new life.

Newly-appointed church custodian, Lori Fowler is battling her own challenges. Her strained relationship with her father and her struggles with overeating convince her she's not worthy enough for love. When an Amish weaver enlists their help locating the owner of a ring found among the donated clothing she uses as fabric, Jase and Lori find themselves drawn to each other. But will they be able to release the past and move forward from this moment into a joyful future?

My Review:

This is the first book that I have read that has had an Amish component to it as I usually don't read them. The storyline was beautifully written and had me so engaged. Lori's story had me in tears and reflecting on my own life and battles. Truly this is an authentic story that resonates with the reader. The characters are flawed just like we all are which made the story all that much more believable. Would totally recommend it to read!

I voluntarily received a complimentary copy from WaterBrook and Multnomah. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
