    I read this book only once, but I cannot stress enough how well-written and heartwarming it is. Such detail and descriptions make you picture and feel the emotions or expressions that are expressed on each character's face. If you've read books by this author already, but you haven't read this book, READ IT! If you haven't read any books by Lori Wick, READ THIS BOOK and you will be hooked.
    It's an awesome book. Very touching!

    This book was really, really good. It was captivating from beginning to end and written in such a way as to let you peek inside the characters hearts. It wonderfully portrayed God's grace, love, and forgiveness in a very real way.

From the Jacket

Meet the Bishop sisters -- Two women at the crossroads of life

On the outside, the Bishop girls appear as different as sisters can be. Mackenzie is a mahogany-haired beauty who''s inherited the determined nature of her Army officer father. Her infectious sense of humor and rare gift of imagination are often hidden by a reserved manner. Radiant, blond Delancey views the world through an artist''s eyes, drawing what she sees with wide sweeps of emotion. Her charming and trusting personality easily wins friends and admirers, but also leaves her sensitive heart vulnerable to hurt.

As the girls grow, unexpected difficulties threaten their world. Will their life-changing experiences bring them together or tear them apart? Where will they find the love they seek?
