Yet another book that I am not sure how I feel about. I usually enjoy the Love Inspired books, they are quick and easy to read with low stress. However I am kind of on the fence about this one. An Orphan’s Hope is about a twice jilted pastor, the baby he becomes the guardian of, and a nurse who becomes a part of the family as she helps care for the baby.
Jace was such a kind guy, he really had a heart to help those in need. I enjoyed reading about him and I felt bad for because he had endured a lot. Although his adopted father left him, and he was jilted by two fiancés he still helped others and was not bitter. However he never expected to become the guardian of his cousin’s new born daughter, Belle. It was cute to read about him trying to care for Belle, learning how to take care of a baby and connecting with Erin. Although he was wary of love, Erin had a way of working his way into her heart as they cared for Belle.
I am not sure how I feel about Erin. She was kind and she loved those around her. She was a nurse and it was sweet to read about her helping out Jace. However she did not care to be in a relationship with a pastor because of her past. She felt as if ministry was always put before herself in regards to her family even when there was something important. I understand how Erin could feel that way, but I am also a PK. As a PK I know that my dad has things that he has to do for ministry because that is what called him to do, but he also tries his best to show me love. I feel as if Erin kind of put pastors in a bad light in that sense, but she had to learn to work through her feelings on that. I did enjoy reading about her connecting with Jace, Belle, and the kids that Jace worked with.
Jace and Erin will have to learn to work through their differences and their pasts. They had both been hurt by people close to them. They will have to learn to trust in God’s plan and will, knowing that God has to be the one to help them. I did enjoy the side characters, the teens were a lot of fun and so were the older ladies in this book.
I did end up enjoying An Orphan’s Hope and I would recommend it to those who enjoy sweet, light Christian reads.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book which I received from the author. All views expressed are only my honest opinion, I was not required to write a positive review.”
