On Tour with Prism Book Tours
|
He lost his brother. She lost her dream. Together, they might find what they’re really looking for.
Holly Stanford is doing the best she can with the restaurant she inherited from her late uncle. But after her fiancé abandons her and the business, Holly regrets having given up her dream of becoming a pastry chef. Now a few bad financial decisions might cost her everything, including her hope for the future.
Jed Henning has done well with his new company despite his prodigal brother’s behavior. When Jed‘s father, the controlling member of the board of directors, temporarily suspends operations until his sons work out their differences, Jed resentfully chases his brother, Chris, to Boise. There Jed rents a basement apartment from Holly and hopes to convince Chris to get his act together before their company collapses. |
Unaware that Holly is the one person who can help him get through to Chris, Jed starts the tough work of reconciliation armed with little more than a few family photographs, a stack of old letters, and a Bible that belonged to his great-grandfather, Andrew Henning. And as romance blossoms between Holly and Jed, the story of Jed’s great-grandfather highlights the power of God across the generations and the legacy of a family’s courageous faith.

My Review
Will their faith see them though?
I picked up How Sweet It Is with a touch of trepidation. You see, as I've read Robin Lee Hatcher's A Legacy Of Faith series I've come to love the Henning Family, especially Andrew, and I knew this was the final book. I knew I'd have to say goodbye to characters who have become friends. And I just didn't want to. But...I couldn't NOT read it either.
As with the previous books in the Legacy Of Faith series Robin Lee Hatcher presents a sweet romance combined with the reality of the messiness of family. The biggest mine fields often involve family. They can love us the best and hurt us the most. We also frequently have the biggest misconceptions about those closest to us.
As much as I enjoyed the romance between Holly and Jed, the slow journey to reconciliation between Jed and his brother, and the way Holly gives of herself to a group of young women, it was still the sections with Andrew that I most looked forward to. Across three books he's gone through tragedy and triumph from young manhood to retirement age. He has faced each struggle with love and a faith that is to be admired.
Needless to say, I did enjoy How Sweet It Is. It was just as wonderful, and bittersweet, as its predecessors. It is very much a book that you shouldn't miss...
Tell Tale Book Reviews gives How Sweet It Is by Robin Lee Hatcher a 4.5 Bark rating.
