Review of Rescued Hearts by Hope Toler Dougherty...And a Christian Fiction Giveaway

I love receiving a review book with the author’s signature in the front. I love finding a new to me author with a book that I love. And I love finding an author that lives – or has lived- close to me and that features local places in her book. Rescued Hearts by Hope Toler Dougherty fit all of my loves.

The author has been a teacher at York Technical College- right in my hometown! And the characters in the book both live in Charlotte- just a stone’s throw away. There are a number of places that I’m familiar with mentioned in the book. And- best of all- I thoroughly enjoyed this read from a new-to-me author.

About the Book…

When Mary Wade Kimball stops to rescue a kitten caught in some vines outside of a rundown house, she’s abducted and held by the criminals who are hiding out there. But one is an undercover officer. Brett Davis ends up breaking his cover to save Mary Wade. The two feel a definite attraction to each other, but each expects that their lives won’t continue to intertwine.

However when the two criminals come ofter Mary Wade, Brett is once again in the picture to protect here. And, as they both have the opportunity to get to know each other, their relationship develops…even as the two are in danger.

My Thoughts…

Besides all of the things already mentioned, this was just an all around good book. The characters were well-developed. and likable. The story was interesting and fast-paced. And bot characters talked about their relationship with Christ without sounding “preachy” or forced.

This isn’t a deep read, but it’s very well done. I recommend it with four strong stars. You can find the book on Amazon here.
