Summary: Not your typical Lori Copeland read.... but wonderful!
Review: Lori Copeland's writings are typically light hearted, yet carry a deep message. After reading several serious chapters of this book, I checked the front cover to make sure Lori was the author! It is the story of a young woman, Emma, who believes she has escaped the hurt of her past by running away, making a new life for herself. Fifteen years later, tragedy places her in the center of the pain she sought to deny. Ultimately, the author's typical humor cannot be denied. The addition of humor is equal to the changes in the heart of the characters. An example of this is on page 218, when Sam, the man who jilted Emma long ago, comes for a visit on Christmas morning. It begins with Sam's greeting:
"'How's my girl this morning?'
'I'm not your girl.'
'How's my grouch this morning?'
She smiled."
A great read about hurting and healing from God's love and faithfulness!

Summary: Tugs at the Heart
Review: When Emma's sister leaves the family home to her and Sam Gold, it seems like a nightmare. Emma has spent years fighting the emotions her break up with Sam left her with. Neithier of the two are completely over each other and it seems her sister was trying her hand at matchmaking. However, still caring about each other and wanting a future are two different things.These two will deal with a lot of emotional battles and conflicts throughout the telling of this story. Emma must also find a faith and belief in God again, when she had given up so many years ago. This book takes the reader on not only an emotional journey but a spirtual one as well. Full of action, one never knows what to expect next. There are several incidents of strange animals/bugs being let loose in the house in an attempt to force them into a sell out. Any fan of inspirational or contemporary should enjoy this!
