Book #10  of 2024: I'm not typically a Love Inspired Romance reader but this one intrigued me and came highly recommended. It just released yesterday (01/21/25) and this is a new author for me. 

I like that there are layers to this story. The MFC is a divorced woman who was abused by her ex. During their separation, he kept trying to contact her. At one point, it results in an assault and she becomes pregnant. The storyline takes place AFTER all of that. 

In her efforts to start over through a women's shelter, she meets the organizer's brother-in-law and takes a job caring for his mother with advanced dementia. Feelings develop but is it the baby drawing them together or is it more?

The storyline with his Mom hit me very personally and I feel it's something many can relate to. So many people have dementia or Alzheimer's and it's like enduring two deaths. However, I don't feel people should shy away from facing difficult storylines. They can help you see a different perspective and find further meaning. It can be healing.
