Two lives taken down different roads – one enduring love – one shot at starting over. If only they believed in second chances..
Julia Connelly is finally free from twelve long years in an abusive relationship. Now able to live the life she’s longed for, Julia takes her two children back home to Vermont, hoping for peace and healing. The last person she expects to see is the man she eloped with at eighteen—who then abandoned her two months into their marriage, with little explanation. .
When an assignment in the Middle East ends in tragedy, popular news correspondent, Reid Wallace, returns to his hometown seeking answers and peace of mind. .
Confronting his past was not in the plan. .
Now he’s asking different questions. Like why the only woman he’s ever really loved still mesmerizes him. Why the haunted expression she wears reaches right into his soul. .
And why her twelve year-old son looks just like him. .
They say you can’t go home again. Sometimes you don’t have a choice.
Thoughts:
Bridge of Faith is a compelling story! When I started reading this book, I intended to read just a few chapters before bed. However, I soon found myself reading into the night and wanting to know how the story would unfold.
Julia Connelly and Reid Wallace are flawed characters and their dramatic story is real, gritty, and filled with emotion. Catherine West has skillfully woven a complex love story that I thoroughly enjoyed. I certainly look forward to reading more from this talented author!
I appreciate the opportunity I was given to read a complimentary copy of Bridge of Faith and share my honest opinion.
