Make You Feel My Love by Robin Lee HatcherMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
This was a very easy-to-read story which flowed smoothly and fast, but at the same time there was depth which we got through the characters’ journey to freedom - in both past and present timelines. Freedom from expectations, set paths, danger and to learn to Trust God completely.
I enjoyed both story lines, loved seeing both couples grow in their relationship but loved Peter and Cora’s steady, grounded love a bit more. I would have liked to spend a bit more time in their timeline and be more part of their story instead of only being given glimpses.
They way Chelsea grew stronger and overcame her fears as she grew in her newfound relationship with God felt realistic. Liam was just a great leading man and I loved seeing his personal thoughts and feelings through his journal entries.
I’m not sure if this will be a series, I hope there will be a sequel, since I want a bit more story around the pearls…and I’m not feeling ready to say goodbye to these characters.
