Jilted Book Review




About the book:

Jilted (David C. Cook, June 2016)

Lynda Turner has struggled with depression since her husband abandoned her and their young daughter fifteen years ago.

Yet unexpected hope awakens when a local ex-convict shows interest. As long-hidden secrets resurface, Lynda must fight for her emotional stability and for a life where the shadow of shame is replaced by the light of love.

Jilted tells of a woman who has lost the joy of living, a man determined to draw her back toward happiness, and a town that must---once and for all---leave the past where it belongs. It is a gentle reminder that all things can work together for good.

My Thoughts

I have loved every part of this series and this book was simply wonderful. I love the nitty gritty details of life that Varina Denman is able to write about. She doesn't beat around the bush and she has such a way with making characters jump off the page. Lynda has been in the previous two books so I would recommend reading these books in order. Jilted has a great story that continues the other character's as well. Great book full of evidence of God's grace even in the worst of circumstances.

"I received this book from Litfuse for free in exchange for an honest review."
