Thank you for tackling the issue of SSA. Not many Christian's are willing to. Loved the characters and yes, there is your happily ever after with the gorgeous hero. Short, sweet and clean read with no sexual details beyond heterosexual kissing. However, I am sure many will take exception with the subject matter from the fact she was bisexual at all to those who have issues with the apparent ease with which Bailey managed to shift her affections. It rarely is that easy. Those Christians who find this is what they feel often find themselves severely depressed because they fear how they will be perceived. Concerned they will be viewed as pariahs and rejected by the very institution that should be open to all who struggle. Our churches send the message that some sins are okay to discuss and some are to be hidden. There are even differences between those who feel it is a sin and those who feel it isn't. Bailey was bi-sexual from college on after she "fell" into a lesbian relationship. She was in a committed lesbian relationship for three years, but decided to pursue a heterosexual relationship after looking forward to the life she wanted for herself and became dissatisfied. Please keep in mind that this is fiction and realize that this is not meant to be an exhaustive treatise on SSA. It is a light romance about one fictional character's journey.I do not know the author. I have not received a free copy for my review. Just stumbled upon this book on Kindle unlimited and felt is was worth the time to review it. Not trying to start a theological or moral debate, just to give an honest portrayal of the book. I think it is worth the read because at the very least it brings a subject most Christians are uncomfortable discussing out of the darkness and into the light, regardless of where you fall on the spectrum of belief. Good job Brooke St. James.
Liked this book very much. Once I started reading it I did not want to stop. I especially appreciated the way the pastor was portrayed as an understanding man who did not condemn but gave her hope. This book addresses an issue prevalent in our country today. It is a well written story sharing God's love and forgiveness as well as Bailey forgiving herself. Bailey thought she'd never find love but God had someone for her and he was every girls dream guy! I have read all of Brooke St James's books and recommend them. They are well edited so I don't find myself correcting grammar as I read. Her books have a story to tell and hold my interest to the end. I look forward to her next story.
I'm actuaslly giving this book a 3 1/2 star rating, not a 4. Why? Let's see....I have read the "Hunt Family" series and loved all of the characters, they were all very interesting, sweet, humorus, and most of all they had real character depth. And the dialogue between characters was so spot on. They were the kind of characters that tend to stay with you long after the story has ended.BUT.......I didn't quite feel that about the characters in this book. Don't get me wrong; I loved the premise of this story, in fact; I thought that part was very unique and different. And the writing is still excellent, just like all of the other stories I've read, so far. I also thought that the characters were very likable, too.BUT....IMO- they lacked that depth I found in this author's other books. Some of the dialogue between these characters just didn't seem to jive, at least not for me. I also thought the whole relationship thing just moved way to fast, therefore; making the whole relationship feel too contrived.That doesn't mean that I think this all book is bad, just not up to par with all of the other stories I've read by this author. I will continue to follow her work in the future....a future I see becoming a very successful one, at that!
I really enjoyed reading the love story of Bailey and Jordan… The story was refreshing and very well told to the reader. I had read several of Brooke St James books and I have never been disappointed. I will continue to buy her books.
Dream Of Us is as much heart-warming as it is inspirational. A wonderful story of a young woman who is able to be honest to the world about her experiences; and without shame; but rather, with loving support of her family and friends finds true love and happiness. The author builds the characters up and allows us to feel a real connection with what they are going through. The story pulled at my heart for sure and the happy ending of course makes this a perfect book to sit back with a cup of tea and enjoy.Great emotional building that pulls you in, and a nicely developed story and ending. A very sweet romance that is well written and satisfies for a great read.
The deceptively light hearted love story of a beautiful heroine who, like every one reading her story, is special, yet faced with her own ordinary and unique day by day challenges and flaws that she Chose to rise above day by day .It reminds us that we all have struggles and do not have to surrender to them but find courage to be the very best of ourselves.I have found this little novel to be my best Brooke st James book yet! Warm , romantic and thought provoking too -lovely
