In the midst of the Great Depression, Neva Shilling has her hands full caring for
her teenage twins and keeping up the Shilling Mercantile while her
husband Warren travels to neighboring
communities to sell goods. Then a wagon pulls up one evening, carrying
three children and a deputy with news that will change her life forever.
Warren and
his wife have passed away, requesting on their death beds that
their children go to live with “aunt” Neva. Neva’s heart is shattered to
learn of her husband’s secret life. How can she care for three children who remind her daily of Warren’s betrayal?
But how can she abandon innocent children to an orphanage?

I had read two of Kim Vogel Sawyer's books in the past and when I read the synopsis for this one, I jumped at the chance to review it. Book giveaways are more rare than review opportunities, so I was especially excited for a chance to share copies with 2 of you if I enjoyed the book. And I definitely enjoyed it! Based on true events from the author's family history,
Room for Hope is a beautiful story of God’s powerful redemptive work in the midst of struggle, betrayal, and heartbreak. The characters were likeable, the ending was not predictable, and I just really enjoyed the story!

ReplyDeleteI'd love to get back into reading with this! Hubby and I decided last week we want to devote Tuesday and Thursday to no cell/laptops and read in bed!
