My Review:
First of all Author B.J. Robinson is one smart, amazing lady who loves the Lord with all her heart, mind and soul. Her writing is so awesome and spot on that no matter who you are, you will be blessed by reading her work.
This is a fast read but don't take it lightly. It has a lot of meaning and a lot of strength can be gained by reading what some may say (between the lines) What I mean by that is this book may have you exploring your own past or your own feelings about things. So take your time, read it with your ears and heart open to the Lord.
This review may seem a little short, but I don't want to give any of the book away. It is a MUST READ.... I have read several of author B.J. Robinson's and have never once been disappointed.
So due to the above, if I could it would be higher, I am giving this book a Breath of Life ratings of:
Five Clock Rating!!!
Disclosure: I did not received the above book in exchange for my honest opinion and review. Opinions are my own and yours may differ.

She won a trophy for First Runner-Up in a Florida Writer's Association contest in 2002. When she's not writing, she's reading and reviewing books on her blog.
B. J. Robinson writes inspirational Christian fiction in the romantic suspense genre from Florida, where she lives with her husband, a cat named Frankie, a golden cocker spaniel named Sunflower, and a golden retriever named Honi. Her children are grown and have made her a grandmother multiple times. She won first prize for a short story in college in fiction-writing competition, which was published in Southeastern Louisiana University's literary magazine, and she's had over a dozen devotionals published in a year's time and has had numerous articles published in local newspapers and anthologies. She developed her love for mystery through Nancy Drew books, her love for reading from her mother, who read fairytales to her before she began school, and her fifth grade teacher, who read the entire Laura Ingalls Wilder Little House series to the class. She grew up on Nancy Drew mysteries and read every one she could get her hands on, so she loves to include mystery and suspense within the pages of her own novels. Her love for writing came from God and her third grade teacher who submitted her first published story about her dog to a local newspaper. She's been writing ever since, and her first college essay was published. Her first-prize-winning short story has been published multiple times. She promises to take her readers on a continuous journey to another world. Reading and writing are her passions. Jesus is her best friend.
