It's hard to believe so many books have already been released in the Peacock Hill series! I have enjoyed getting to know this group of friends.
This time, Claire gets to have her turn at romance. Deidre and Duncan's younger sister has been enamored with Danny almost since she met him, and yet, as far as she can tell, he isn't interested in the least. Determined to move on from what appears to be a hopeless infatuation, Claire determines to move away and move on. And then when one of the foundations of her life is shaken, she isn't quite sure what to believe.
Danny knows what it's like to have turned his back on God. So when Matt reminds him of what God rescued him from, it is the awakening he needs. As he begins to get his focus adjusted, he begins to see the jewel Claire is in his life. Just in time to watch her begin to step away.
Elizabeth Maddrey has again written a thought-provoking story that deals with heart issues that are important for believers to consider. Purity. Trust. Prayer. Hope. The manner in which the friends exhorted each other, encouraged one another to purity, bore one another's burdens was inspiring. I appreciated the way she used scripture accurately to illustrate her point and was careful to not pull it out of context or simply use it as a platitude.
Readers who appreciate a focus on spiritual matters in their fiction will enjoy the Peacock Hill series. Each story is complete in itself though the experience is enhanced by reading them in order.
