Kelly’s Review
This is the first novel in Sally John and Gary Smalley’s new Safe Haven series which was just released this year. I enjoyed reading this book. I felt that the story lines were very well developed and weren’t overly clinched nor were they too predictable. The character development in this book is really rich and the characters each bring depth to the story lines.
I appreciated that this novel touched upon issues that are real and relevant in marriage, especially Christian marriages. Topics covered include submission, fidelity and also providing each partner with a safe harbor within the marriage. I thought that each facet of the story was handled beautifully. This is a great read for those who are married whether facing trials or not. The issues and lessons of the story could serve as reminders to many of us even if we are never faced with the exact same situations.
I recommend this one. It’s a worthy read. I will be looking forward to more books in this series. I will also be sure to check out more works by Sally John.
