Review of Through the Tears
Review of Through the Tears
by Rosemary Hines
"Michelle Baron sat on the edge of the couch, her heart racing as she looked at the envelope in her hand. I guess this is it, she thought. The return address seemed harmless enough. Fairfield Lab, Portland, Oregon. But this envelope contained information that could change her life forever."
Michelle and her family rejoice when her father begins to regain consciousness after an unsuccessful suicide attempt. But a long journey awaits, as they seek to clear his name of the embezzlement charges that drove him to this desperate act. The days of their vigil at the hospital drag into weeks, and Michelle finds herself repeatedly drawn to the newborn nursery. Observing couples leave with tiny babes in their arms, her heart is stirred, and she begins to yearn for a child of her own. However, an unexpected twist will threaten her new dream.
"Through the Tears" -- the second novel in the Sandy Cove series -- delivers a message of hope in the midst of longing and disappointment.

My Review:
Through the Tears deals with suicide, infertility, adoption, and abortion as well as infidelity and then there is forgiveness and hope. Rosemary Hines truly gripped at my heart as I was cheering Michelle on. Of course, there is a "bad guy" in every story and Trevor fits the bill for that title. Michelle also finds herself having to defend her newfound faith in the aftermath of her experimentation with the New Age spirituality practices. My heart broke for Michelle as they experienced infertility and the pain associated with it. I was constantly finding myself waiting with bated breath as I read. I loved this book and am eager to read the third book in the Sandy Cove series.
I received a free pdf version of this book from the author in exchange for my honest review. About the Author:
