Lori Copeland has a way of
writing beautiful, unique love stories, and The
Preacher’s Lady is no exception. It
is a tender story about young love that doesn’t turn out quite like expected,
and the forgiveness and redemption that can turn it all around.
When Elly Sullivan was fourteen
years old she swore that she would love Bo Garrett forever. When Bo was seventeen he rode off for one
month just to see the world. That was
seven years ago and Elly hasn’t heard from him since. She has tried to move on , and has a suitor who would like nothing
more than to make her his wife. When Bo’s
father gets sick, he returns home, throwing Elly’s life into a tailspin. He’s now a preacher, the one thing Elly
wanted him never to be. She’s determined
not to fall in love with him again.
Circumstances seem to continually throw them together, and Bo only wants
forgiveness from Elly. But as their feelings
grow can Elly choose truth and forgiveness over her bitterness and anger?
This book is a sweet love story,
but it does have spiritual components as well.
Even as Elly struggles with her feelings for Bo, she is also struggling
over her relationship with God. The
reverend in her town preaches only about a God of anger and judgement, but Elly
wants more. Bo uses his actions more
than his words to demonstrate to Elly that God loves people and wants a
relationship with them.
This book is one of those that
gives you a warm, fuzzy feeling, and makes you think love can make everything
turn out right. It’s another winner from
Lori Copeland, and as long-time fan, I hope to see more in this series.
Happy Reading!
