Prayer and the spoken word.

Enjoyed this short read. Like how situations, prayer and scriptures can touch more than the one going through things and can heal them

So Good!

Loved Ava's journey. I listen to the whole story in less than a day. I had to see what was wrong with Ava's neck. God used Ava's affliction to help her return to her faith and then share it with others. Such a sweet book. I highly recommend.

Good story

I enjoyed this story but not as much as the Producer's Bride. Maybe because it is a short story that you don't get into as much. Narration was great as always.

Always a great read from Lorana Hoopes

Ava's Blessing in Disguise: A Blushing Brides Short Story, my eighteenth incredible read from wonderful Christian author Lorana Hoopes. The author’s Texas roots show as her books are set in The Lonestar State. This is another amazing Christian read, God's hand is apparent throughout the book, if there's a flaw in this book it's that it's too short, After having read The Cowboy’s Reality Bride (Blushing Brides #1) and The Reality Bride’s Baby (Blushing Brides #2) I wanted to read more Blushing Brides series. I don't do spoilers though so you'll have to read it and find out for yourself! I was given an Audible copy of this book & am voluntarily reviewing. Lorana Hoopes’s talented self-narration & Texas accent/drawl adds to the well-written book's enjoyment as no one knows her characters like the creator. I can’t wait to read the next book in the series. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

cute

this was a cute little life lesson. at first, I wasn't sure where the story was going, what the point was, but it became clear right at the end. I haven't listened to or read the story that goes before this (the producers bride I believe) so I'm sure that would have help. but for a short little story, it was fine
