For years, Doug Anderson has been drifting slowly but steadily away from both his family and his faith. His parents have been trying to reach him before he falls too far. His friend Christina hopes what she is seeing online isn't true. But sometimes you have to hit bottom before you're ready to grow up.
Just as things begin to settle down a bit, Doug's life takes a turn that requires every bit of faith and patience for both his family and Christina - whose growing feelings for Doug, a man who writes her off as not worth his time, keep her off balance.
Will Doug's crisis finally clear his vision and help him focus on what he has right in from of him?
Dan Walsh is the bestselling author of many books, including The Dance, The Promise, and The Desire with Gary Smalley. He has won three Carol Awards, and three of his novels were finalists for RT Book Reviews inspirational book of the year. He lives with his wife in the Daytona Beach area, where he's busy researching and writing his next novel.
My Thoughts:
The Legacy is the fourth and final book in the Restoration Series. The books in the series, including The Legacy could be read as stand alone novels, but I recommend reading the series as a whole in order to gain the full experience with this family.
Gary and Dan have done an excellent job of probing into the depths of family dynamics. In this final book, the authors give a modern day picture of the biblical Prodigal Son parable. I have enjoyed getting to know the Anderson family and the siblings in particular. The authors' gift of storytelling is given to readers through well thought out characters and expertly woven plots with believable scenerios and genuine emotion. These stories have made me feel and have stuck with me long after the last pages have been turned.
*I received a complimentary copy of the book for the purpose of giving my honest review.
Happy Reading Ya'll
Jennifer
