I enjoyed this very emotional story that takes the reader on a roller coaster ride of joy and sorrow in the lives of several people. James Cahill marries Gwendolyn and moves away, but it is not a happy marriage and ends with her divorcing him. Returning to Cutter’s Creek he is gossip worthy considering divorce is shameful. Lillian Donaldson has been in love with James Cahill since she was seventeen-years-old, but he was older and her math teacher. Her outburst at his wedding was the talk of the town. Lily has tried to obey her parents, but they are very cold-hearted people, offering her no love or affection. When James returns to Cutter’s Creek and speaks to Lily, the gossip mill is in full swing again.The plot of the story will keep the pages turning with so much angst, anger, confusion, judgment, misunderstandings, and surprises. A moral lesson is included about judging people, and even so-called Christians in this story are very judgmental. There is a great cast of characters, and not all of them are pleasant people. The story does bring out mental illness and how it can affect a person. There are some sweet moments, but heartbreaking ones too. I admire Lily and her respect for her parents even though they are anything but kind and loving. She does love the Lord and tries to be a helpful person; she is actually a victim of circumstances beyond her control. In spite of how several people have treated her, she has a forgiving heart. “The Lord has a plan in all of this. I know it doesn’t feel like it, or seem so, but He does. He will turn your mourning into dancing.”

A Lily Blooms is has such a good story line. And I can really relate to it in a way. I grew up in a family who didn't want me. It is a horrible way to live. I am so happy that Lily found a good man who would give her a good life & truely love her for who she is. Thank you Kari Trumbo !

A very sweet clean tender romance. I love these stories about the small town where you can see how the people are doing and catch up on how their lives are turning out. It is a wonderful book, I like all of her stories!

Lillian embarrasses herself by her outburst in the middle of a wedding that most of the town was attending. Seeing that this was an embarrassment to her family and caused the family to become a laughing stock and talked about in the gossip mill, Lillian’s mother forbade her to speaking to James Cahill every again. Being the talk of the town lessened Lillian’s chances at finding a suitor. Lillian tries to avoid James but it seemed every time she turned around, he was there.James was sure that Lillian knew something, why else would she have created a scene at the wedding. He is now going through a nasty divorce and lost everything to the woman he married. What did Lillian know back then? Wanting answers, James will not leave Lillian alone until he finds the answers he is seeking.It was a great read from beginning to end. The plot was unique and the writing was solid. This book teaches of not judging people and how even “Christians” tend to be very judgmental. There are twists and turns that you don’t see coming that add to the story and create a unique story. This book shows you that even through heartaches and stumbles in life that there is a “pot of gold” at the rainbow for everyone.I enjoyed reading this book by the author with the clean and true to life story that she created. The book can be read as a standalone without feeling that you are missing something from not reading the other books in the series.

Whoops, I started with Book 4. That's ok though because it is a standalone book and didn't affect my reading experience. James Cahill marries another woman and Lillian is heartbroken as she has a huge crush on him. She attends the wedding and makes a spectacle of herself. Honestly, I felt so bad for her humiliation. Unfortunately for James, his marriage is devoid of happiness. He returns to Cutter's Creek a divorced man and tracks Lillian down. He must know what she saw in his former wife that he did not; what does she know?Lillian has spent the past five years being the dutiful daughter and avoiding all weddings. The poor girl has put up with so much gossip. Her parents are very unloving and jaded. Lillian tries to avoid James Cahill when he returns but he tracks her down wherever she goes. And each time, her mother takes it out on poor Lillian. The situation changes when a child enters the picture.This was a very quick read for me as I could not put the book down. I think I will love the new series and the beautiful red church. Onto books 1-3 to see what I might have missed and then looking forward to the next books in the series.

I really enjoy this author's books, and this one was no exception. It is the fourth book in the Cutter's Creek Series, but it can be read as a standalone, and it t is definitely a wonderful addition to the series. Once again the author has combined faith, romance and wonderful characters and written a story that had me pulled in from the first pages. I thoroughly enjoyed Lillian and James' story as they struggled to put the hurts and secrets of the past behind them and find their future together. I was given a copy of this book in return for an honest review, and it is one, along with the prior books in this series, that I definitely recommend.
