Matt Bellinger is running for state senate and has a real
heart for working hard toward bettering his community. When he shows up at Sal’s Place to promote a
bill concerning volunteerism, he meets Heather Cavanaugh. She’s a hair stylist but also works tirelessly
as a volunteer. Though they are nothing
alike, he is drawn to her spunky personality but also to her gentle yet strong
faith. He sees in her an inner
peacefulness that he wants. Since faith
is unseen, Matt has a hard time accepting it but seeks to find out about the
God who gives Heather such unwavering strength.
His new understanding of faith, however, is quickly challenged when a
family member is diagnosed with a serious illness. Will Matt be able to hold on
to his new found faith and find the inner peace he longs to possess?
Once again this author
dishes up a heapin’ helpin’ of faith with a generous side of romance. I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know Matt and
Heather. I loved their playfulness
toward each other. It just made me smile. The struggles that each one faced were very
relatable, especially Matt. Just like
Matt, we don’t always understand why God allows certain things to happen but as
the Bible states, God’s ways are not our ways.
This side of heaven we won’t understand why things happen the way they
do. But we do know that everything from
God is good, even the bad things and we can trust that He is right there with
us to see us through. What an
encouraging message. It was fun returning
to Sal’s Place again and getting a whiff of all the good dishes Sal is cooking
up. It made me hungry. Jennifer is a familiar face there and she’ll
be happy to take your order! By
Appointment Only is the third installment in the Sal’s Place Series and was a
joy to read!
