About the book:
Aileen, Siobhan,
Kassidy and Maeve – long ago they made a purity pledge to God and a friendship
vow to one another. Now this quartet is about to embark on the journey of a
lifetime…
All her life,
Aileen Brewer has dreamed of singing on stage and winning the heart of Liam
Douglas. When she sings, she exudes confidence and charm. Away from the spotlight,
she’s the sky, curvaceous woman who has always tried to maintain a sweet, Godly
spirit despite her radical upbringing and a sense that she’s not quite good
enough.
During a music
festival at Holy Spirit Catholic Church, Aileen takes the stage with her three
best friends, and Sisters in Spirit is born.
Liam, a Christian
record producer, is captivated by the wallflower of his youth who has blossomed
into a magnetic performer. He champions a record deal, and a quest for Aileen’s
heart begins, but can she find confidence enough to take command of the group…and
accept Liam's love? Can Liam help her see the beauty of the woman she has
become?
Dreams just might
come true in ways only God could orchestrate…
My review:
This is a
wonderfully sweet and pure romance.
I absolutely love
the main character, Aileen Brewer. She is surrounded by three very close
girlfriends who look up to her as the leader of their group. We are introduced
to this close-knit group of friends as they bind themselves in a purity pledge
and a forever friendship vow. As they are doing this we are shown just how deep
of a belief these girls have in God and their desire to honor Him. As the story
progresses we see the faults and insecurities that Aileen struggles with. She
is a very human woman and easy to relate to.
The story that
Aileen and her friends embark on is a very sweet and feel good story. The love
story is simple and very clean. It is a delight to see how Aileen and Liam
traverse the pathway of discovery. The road that Aileen and her friends
travel is the stuff that fairy tales are made of.
