My Review:
Patrick E Craig, is an excellent writer! His characters are warm, tender hearted people that you will fall in love with. This novel, Jenny's Choice being the last in the Apple Creek series is by far the best of the lot, in my opinion.
After careful consideration, Jenny decides that after the death of her husband she must move into her parents home. It will be for them to help raise the daughter that she shared with Jonathan, but mostly to help her get past such a tragic event in her lift---the death of her husband. Even though their daughter, Rachel wants to stay in the home their shared with her beloved father, in the hopes he will return. Jenny tells her that they must move on to a new home because it is too much for Jenny to bear.
I really thought after that scene, I would be a puddle of tears but the following one when she and Rachel left their home and she turns back and sees Jonathan waving was enough to give me chill bumps. The author does an excellent job of being very descriptive so much so that its a little scary, but in a good way. This book has a few twists and turns and I can't believe the ending. Wow, didn't see that coming at all!
**Disclosure** This book was sent to me free of charge for my honest review from Harvest House.
