A sweet, gentle read. Both uplifting and thought inspiring.

Each passage is beautifully written with a meaningful message
By Jillian
This book is such a lovely read. Each passage is beautifully written with a meaningful message. It’s the perfect book to keep at your bedside and to read a few passages each night. This is the second book I’ve read by Carole Dowhan and I can’t wait to see what her next book holds!
