She finds herself barren and longing to give her husband a child while finding out that her husband has an illegitimate son. She is taking care of her dying mother while coping with some things from her childhood. As the reader follows Jade through her struggles, the evidence of God working in her life is unveiled. There are a few other main characters that surround Jade during this difficult season. Not only are these characters a part of Jade's story, but they are also struggling with different issues as well.<br /><br />I would definitely recommend this book to any one who is looking for a good read but also for an uplifting and encouraging story. Sara Evans does a wonderful job of keeping the reader entertained but also of connecting the characters' emotions with the words on the pages. I do have to admit that there are a few holes in the characters stories that are not filled in until the end of the book.Sverigehttp://socialconditioning.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5593362156641459029.post-8200626221077992582012-01-17T00:45:26.972-08:002012-01-17T00:45:26.972-08:00The storyline of two separated parents searching f...The storyline of two separated parents searching for their missing daughter who everyone, including her own mother, had presumed dead drew me in. The picture of 5 small foster girls living for the summer at a ranch and the possibility of a tender reunion and a happy ending for everyone involved tugged at my heart strings. It was everything else that bugged me. The writing was good but there were just too many things I asked: REALLY? about to make the storyline believable.Belgiehttp://dpurposeofruning.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5593362156641459029.post-4831194337275061792011-04-19T19:12:47.288-07:002011-04-19T19:12:47.288-07:00Thank you so much for taking the time to read and ...Thank you so much for taking the time to read and review "Regret Free Parenting".
