Savannah Barrington has always found solace at her parents’ lake house in the Berkshires, and it’s the place that she runs to when her husband of over twenty years leaves her. Though her world is shaken, and the future uncertain, she finds hope through an old woman’s wisdom, a little girl’s laughter, and a man who’s willing to risk his own heart to prove to Savannah that she is worthy of love.
But soon Savannah is given a challenge she can’t run away from: Forgiving the unforgivable. Amidst the ancient gardens and musty bookstores of the small town she’s sought refuge in, she must reconcile with the grief that haunts her, the God pursuing her, and the wounds of the past that might be healed after all.
Where Hope Begins is the story of grace in the midst of brokenness, pointing us to the miracles that await when we look beyond our own expectations.
Here is what I thought....
Catherine is always writing a story that will touch your heart. This is my second read by her and I am amazed once again. The way she can intertwine a story and give it a lasting value is amazing. I am always amazed by her stories and now I think I am a fan for life. This book brought me to tears in the most beautiful way. I loved this book! I enjoyed the characters and the setting. The author definitely has a way with words. The way she takes your breath away while writing is astounding! I received this book for free from TLC book tours and the publisher. A positive review was not required. All opinions are my own.
