The Hope of Azure Springs by Rachel FordhamMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
I'm in trouble, because now I am adding another author to my list of authors to follow whose books I want to read! This debut novel had character growth, danger, deep emotions, and some fun adventurous moments. Thinking back on this story, for me, it is about what true beauty is.
Em, though she was not what the world would define beauty, was the perfect representation of inner beauty and how what is in the heart, can flow through to others and create beauty around you.
I enjoyed Em's journey of finding where she belongs.

About the author:
Rachel Fordham has long been fascinated by all things historical or in the words of her children “old stuff”.
Often the historical trivia she discovers is woven into her children's bedtime tales. Despite her love for good stories she didn’t attempt writing a novel until her husband challenged her to do so (and now she’s so glad he did). Since that time she’s often been found typing or researching while her youngest child naps or frantically writing plot twists while she waits in the school pick-up line. In addition to her passion for storytelling she enjoys reading, being outdoors and seeing new places. Rachel lives with her husband and children on an island in Washington state.
