After her release, Karyn stays strong and confident, despite the stigma society places on ex-offenders. Levi Tolliver, for the most part, is a practicing Christian.

Story
Omega Addams thought it was a typical work day until a detour on the way home changes everything. She's almost killed, but an innocent bystander, Mitchell Franklin, takes a bullet for Omega during a gas station robbery. In the aftermath, Omega has no idea that God expects her to “pray it forward” until a spiritual battle unfolds before her eyes. Another innocent bystander is in trouble; unless Omega gets her prayer life together, others will die without Christ. It's a chain reaction that highlights the responsibility of a Christian—hot, cold, or lukewarm.

The Jamieson saga continues with the Queen of the family in this inspirational romance. She's the mistress of flirtation but Philip is unaffected by her charm. The two enjoy a harmless banter about God’s will versus Queen's, who prefers her own free-will lifestyle. Philip doesn't judge her choices — most of the time — and Queen respects his opinions — most of the time. It's perfect harmony sometimes.

Story
Rex “TW” McMurtry’s perpetual singlehood wouldn’t bother him so much if all his ex-girlfriends didn’t keep marrying the very next person they dated, especially when so many of those grooms are his closest friends. He may be a pro-football defensive end for the Chicago Squalls, but the press only wants to talk about how he’s always a groomsman and never a groom. Bartender Abigail McNerny is the gal-pal, the wing-woman, the she-BFF. Abby is convinced no one on earth could ever entice her into a romantic relationship...except that one guy she’s loved since preschool.

Rhiannon Hunter may have revolutionized romance in the digital world, but in real life she only swipes right on her career - and the occasional hookup. The cynical dating app creator controls her love life with a few key rules: nude pics are by invitation only; if someone stands you up, block them with extreme prejudice; protect your heart. Only there aren't any rules to govern her attraction to her newest match, former pro-football player Samson Lima. The sexy and seemingly sweet hunk woos her one magical night...and disappears.

The Knicely Sisters Pact
The three Knicely Sisters make a pact that each of them will commit to six months of being a caregiver for their eighty-five year old Great Aunt, Miss Priscilla Brownlee, who has been diagnosed with Alzheimers. None of them realizes what they have gotten themselves into. Tabitha is the first to discover that her Great Aunt can disappear in the seven minutes it takes her to shower, and Miss Priscilla is really fast as she visits a house she believes to be hers where she sits on the porch. The homeowner, Marcus Whittington, baffled by this elderly Senior Citizen, once he meets her caregiver, threatens Tabitha to have her Great Aunt removed by the police due to neglect. As he becomes better acquainted with the situation and this beautiful woman, Tabitha and her Great Aunt, soon learns the stress under which Tabitha is attempting to live. Marcus seems to place himself in situations where he becomes a rescuer as the listener will see as they follow along with the audiobook. Although the story ends on a good note, will Marcus be satisfied when he no longer needs to be the knight in shining armor?

Beautiful Love in the face of Adversity
Lean on me starts with suspense, intertwines love and adversity all in the same story. Delivered in a way that makes you feel that you are there with those in the story. Then ends with a strong love that came during the unexpected. Thanks for writing another piece of literary art which would make a great Lifetime movie (hint, hint).

First time listening to a Pat Simmons Book
This was really good and kept my attention. Being from St. Louis, I was familiar with the landmarks and places mentioned in the book. It was like I wanted to drive over to Pasadena Hills to live the story of Marcus and Tabatha. The only thing I would criticize is the narrator wasn't familiar with some of the pronunciations of our streets and venues. St. Louis has unique words and you could tell Ms. Floyd wasn't from there. Overall great book and sad we have to wait until February for the next one in this series.

A true man of God
I loved this book. I always like to hear the narrator. She is very good. She makes the book come alive. The story line was great. This is a good clean book. There were no sex cussing or fighting. They courted each other and fell in love . Marcus was a real man of God. He also helped his girlfriend with her Aunt Tweet. If you want to listen to a good clean religious book.This is truly the one.

not a romance fan
I am not a romance fan and only got this because the Kindle version was free through a book club, but this was a good book! I loved the inclusion of God throughout the story. the sisters commitment to Aunt Tweet was heartwarming, and showing the effects of dementia made it all the more real. I'm looking forward to the next two books!

Becoming one of my favorite authors!
Loved the detailed descriptions of everything. That is what kept me engaged. Related to Tabitha being an caregiver to her aunt Tweet. Alzheimer is really an debilitating disease that not only impact the ones but those who are taking care of them. Loved how Marcus took the time to really see what Tabitha was going through. Also loved the relationship with Tabitha's sisters.

A beacon of light for families faced with dementia
As a family caregiver for my mom with advancing dementia, listening to this novel while driving back and forth between my mom's house and my house was like riding and talking with a friend, who is facing the same challenges of caring for a loved one with dementia, finding out that she is experiencing the same myriad of emotions, the same family issues, the polarized guilt between not doing enough for my mom while not doing enough to take care of myself and my family. The unfolding love story in the book reminded me to look for the gifts of grace, love, and joy amidst the challenges.
