Review from the Hope Chest Review Received 4 Stars
A Special Blessing for Sara is a
gentle inspirational romance that in some ways is more reminiscent of women's
fiction with a strong romantic element.
Sara is a caring, compassionate young woman who
is very good at her job as a counselor but is struggling a bit in her personal
life.
I did enjoy A Special Blessing for Sara. Sara's close-knit family is very heartwarming, just the kind of family almost anyone would love to have. The multiple romantic connections that occur for the other single characters in the book was cute, and at least left me with a good feeling about no one really getting left out in the cold. I especially loved the way the people of the church reached out to help those in the community who were without power during the storm, particularly ones who were the most vulnerable, like the elderly. Readers who are averse to religious themes may not care for this one, because the faith message is ever-present throughout the narrative. I found it to be a gentle, organic part of the story and therefore, not off-putting in any way, but others may feel differently.
Overall, this was one of those really sweet, super-easy reads that makes you feel like you've wrapped up in a warm blanket with a hot cup of cocoa on a cold winter's day. I would recommend it for anyone looking for a simple, uncomplicated story to relax and unwind from the stresses of life.
Note from reviewer: I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
