- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book was well written. Families can be more than ...
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This has been one of my favorite stories so far this year. I loved Jane and Garrett. It was nice to read a book that takes place during WWll but does not go too much into the horrors that occurred. It was fascinating to learn some about how foster care and adoptions were handled in Canada during the time of WWll. This story made me laugh and cry. I did not want to put this book down. These two characters go through some trials to figure out how they want to spend their lives. I received a copy of this book from the author for a fair and honest opinion that I gave of my own free will.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This is second book in Redemption's Light series by Susan Anne Mason but definitely can be read as a stand-alone. In 1943 Toronto, WWII has torn apart the city's finances, morale, and people. Even though understaffed and under-budgeted, the Toronto Children's Aid Society works diligently to help the orphaned children find foster and forever homes. Jane is an unusual acting directress of the organization, but she puts her heart and soul into the work she does. Garrett is an auditor who comes to sort out the financial tangle within the Society but becomes so much more to Jane with his optimism, steadfast tenderness, disciplined integrity, and passion to help those in need. Their relationship is tested as they compete for the same job, chase after a hurting boy who likes to run away, and try to figure out the best path when their pasts push forward to take center stage in their present. Both Jane and Garrett are lovely and I really enjoyed learning about how the Children's Aid Society worked. The author does an excellent job of portraying the effects of the war in Toronto with sensitivity and tenderness. If you're a fan of historical fiction/romance, you will surely enjoy this book. I received the book from Bethany House Publishers and was under no obligation to post a positive comment. All opinions are solely my own.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5We are back in Toronto Canada and as with the first book we are helping children by way of the Children's Aid Society, and although this is the second book in this series that I have read, the book can stand alone.The main character Jane Linder is reeling from the abrupt ending of her marriage, and trying to move on during difficult times. She has been named acting director of the CAS, and is loving her job.Enter Garrett Wilder a wounded veteran who has been hired to find some missing funds. Yes, Jane is a suspect, but then so are others. Now Jane and Garrett get to work closely together, and are also helping the children.Can these two hurting individuals form a relationship, maybe, and in the end help hurting eight year old Martin.This story has so much going on, WWII, aiding children, missing and wounded soldiers, and just a bit of romance thrown in, and then you start page-turning for answers!I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
