All In God’s Perfect Timing

Sisters Ever After by Erin Stevenson is the most delightful contemporary Christian novel that will warm your heart and soul as you read. It is the first book in the Canadian Meadows series.

God is at the heart of the novel. He walks alongside us through all the seasons of life. He whispers to our hearts. Are we quiet enough to hear Him? “I am with you always… the words whispered to her soul.”

Prayer is important. Prayer is talking with God. It should be as natural as breathing. “[He] spoke with an ease that made her think he talked to God on a regular basis.” Sometimes our prayers are desperate. God hears the cries of our hearts and He always acts.

Life is not always kind but God is always good and always faithful. He walks with us. Everything happens in His perfect timing. He will repay the years the locusts have eaten.

Something sinister is going on. The authorities have not been able to discover the truth. It is up to the two lead characters who, with tenacity, search to uncover that which is hidden.

The characters were all wonderfully drawn. Many were warm and welcoming. The two young girls are positively delightful. Their friendship is beautiful to witness. The two main characters are used to their independence but life has not always been kind. It is lovely to see their prickly exteriors melt away as their friendship buds and blossoms.

Sisters Ever After was a positively charming novel that I read in just one sitting. It is a wonderful work of fiction that will leave you smiling.

I received a free copy of the book from the author. All my opinions are my own.
