Acerca de esta escucha
It's never too late...to find the love of a family.
When divorcee Elise signs up to be a foster parent at the age of 50, she wonders if she made a huge mistake.
Her fear increases when her first placement comes straight from the police station in the middle of the night. Elise struggles to care for the angry teenager who is more difficult to love than anyone she's ever met before.
At only 15, DJ has lived a harder life than most other orphans.
A terrifying stepfather and a string of unfit foster parents has left DJ with a fragile heart that keeps its distance. That way no one can ever hurt her again.
When DJ is sent to live with Elise temporarily, the two struggle to connect while DJ makes secret plans to run away. But as Elise shares God's love, both hearts begins to soften and believe that a happily family might not be completely out of reach.
Fans of Karen Kingsbury will enjoy the realistic characters and faith-driven novels by Valerie Howard.

But the number of winter blazes they’re called to seems suspiciously high, and when an accident leaves Jack badly injured, Gordon realizes the facts don’t add up.

Olivia McAfee knows what it feels like to start over. Her picture-perfect life—living in Boston, married to a brilliant cardiothoracic surgeon, raising their beautiful son, Asher—was upended when her husband revealed a darker side. She never imagined that she would end up back in her sleepy New Hampshire hometown, living in the house she grew up in and taking over her father’s beekeeping business. Lily Campanello is familiar with do-overs, too. When she and her mom relocate to Adams, New Hampshire, for her final year of high school, they both hope it will be a fresh start.

Sam Hill always saw the world through different eyes. Born with red pupils, he was called “Devil Boy” or Sam “Hell” by his classmates; “God’s will” is what his mother called his ocular albinism. Her words were of little comfort, but Sam persevered. Sam believed it was God who sent Ernie Cantwell, the only African American kid in his class, to be the friend he so desperately needed. And that it was God’s idea for Mickie Kennedy to storm into Our Lady of Mercy like a tornado, uprooting every rule Sam had been taught about boys and girls. Forty years later, Sam, a small-town eye doctor, is no longer certain anything was by design.

The title of this book seems like a light and fluffy book. In reality it is a heart searching journey for Elise who is a 50 something woman who feels that she has something to give and decides to foster children and teens.
DJ is a young teen who has been through multiple traumas and uncountable foster homes. He life is anything but easy, and at time PTSD becomes uncontrollable.
Elise is flawed, has never been a mother, and is hopelessly over her head with DJ. DJ doesn’t want to like Elise. All they do works against each other, but Elise doesn’t give up, and neither does God.
I couldn’t put the book down, and when I did finish, it was still on my mind. It was realistic, well written, and the characters were beautifully flawed. I think this book should be required reading for anyone thinking about fostering older children.

Elise is a middle aged woman who has always felt like her life was missing something. When their paths cross, they struggle to see Gods plan. Will they be able to put the puzzle together to see the plan?
This was such an emotional and thought provoking story. I was so moved by this story and the characters. Ms. Howard pulled me into DJs story and tugged at my heartstrings and left me crying in the end.
I highly recommend this book!

While I found the narration pleasant, the narrator was somewhat flat in intonation and some people may find that off-putting. If you are looking for theatricality, this isn't the narrator for you; if you are looking for a comfortable voice, then you will enjoy the narration.
I received this book from the author with no expectation on her part other than that I would listen; she did not even put forth the expectation that I would give a review. I am happy to do so as I thoroughly enjoyed the story and will look for others in the series.
