My rating: 💛💛💛💛
I enjoyed this sequel which focused on the grown orphan children we have met in My Heart Remembers.
Though this one had more of a young adult feel with the children off to college, there was still depth in the growth and development of the characters.
I enjoyed seeing how each character grew and discover more about themselves and loved Pete’s reconciliation story with his family, which was both heartbreaking and heartwarming.

View all my reviews
Award-winning, bestselling author Kim Vogel Sawyer told her kindergarten teacher that someday people would check out her book in the library. The little-girl dream came true in 2006 with the release of Waiting for Summer's Return. Kim's titles now exceed 1.5 million copies and are available in six different languages. A former elementary school teacher, she now enjoys a full-time writing and speaking ministry. Kim's passion lies in writing stories that point the reader to a deeper, more intimate relationship with God. When Kim isn't writing, you'll find her traveling with her retired military hubby, spoiling her granddarlings, petting the cats, quilting, or--as time allows--participating in community theater. You can learn more about Kim's writing and speaking ministries at her website, KimVogelSawyer.com.
