review Just the way you are

Just the way You Are by KM Daughters

RELEASES: July 29th

BLURB:

After surviving a fire, Noelle Walker is finished with undergoing unsuccessful operations to eliminate facial scars and to restore the use of her hand. Her neighbor, owing his life to Noelle's selfless rescue, finances her Valselo pilgrimage where she might experience the living presence of the Mother of God. Noelle silently prays to receive the miracle of self-acceptance so that she might live normally despite her gnawing self-consciousness about her appearance.


When she meets the handsome Shane Thompson, his avid, romantic attention makes Noelle believe that perhaps miracles do happen in the quaint Adriatic village. The renowned maxillofacial surgeon doesn't seem to care that her hand is crippled and her face is scarred-that is until he claims he can give her "her miracle."

Noelle survived the fire, but will she survive her broken heart after concluding Shane's interest is conditional on fixing her appearance?


Will Shane acknowledge that only God can perform miracles, and can he convince Noelle that he loves her regardless of her scars, and not because of them?


MY REVIEW:

Noelle and Shane’s story is lovingly and beautifully told in volume 2 of the Gospa Journeys. Injured saving her neighbours life in a fire, Noelle is left with severe scarring. All she wants is a miracle, to be able to accept the way she is now. Shane, an eminent plastic surgeon, falls for her the instant he meets her, and is convinced he is her miracle.

KM Daughters have penned another wonderful story of love, faith and hope. We catch up with characters we already met, and meet new ones, all set in amazingly detailed scenery. Proving that God knows best and works miracles in His own way, this story is not to be missed.

His lips parted like a curtain to reveal his pearly whites. “Well, if it
