Second Chance in Dry Creek by Janet Tronstad, Book Review

By Books Are Sanity!!! -





Blurb from the book:

Her neighbors in Dry Creek, Montana, think Gracie Stone is rebuilding her life just fine on the family ranch. But Calen Gray knows better. Foreman of nearby Elkton Ranch, Calen has been sweet on Gracie half their lives. But harrowing circumstances kept them apart—and sent Gracie away. Now she's back, barely holding her head up, and refusing to believe she has a second chance at happiness. With faith, love and the gentle airing of long-held secrets, Calen just might find a way to bring back her smile—forever.


My Review:


Second Chance in Dry Creek is all about Gracie Stone trying to rebuild her life in the town she once lived in before she was arrested.  This Christian novel is all about second chances and starting over again.  Gracie has to decide if she can learn to trust again....her neighbors, her friends, and most of all her heart.  I have not read the other books in this series and it was easy to understand what the book was about.  The author explains enough about what happened before this book that I didn't feel like I was lost or confused.  Janet Tronstad has a writing style that is easy to read!  If you like Christian or inspirational stories, then you will enjoy Second Chance in Dry Creek!  Gracie became a character that I felt I knew and one that I was encouraging on in my mind.  A little bit of mystery as well, this was an enjoyable read!  Three and a half stars!


You can pick up Second Chance in Dry Creek via Amazon  or Barnes and Noble.


Happy Reading!!!
