I really wanted to love this book, but I didn't. I did really like it though. I was a touch of old school Ted Dekker & Frank Perretti, but there is something missing so it doesn't quite reach their level. It is a fresh view of an old topic of supernatural forces & the choices we make to allow them in our lives.

Plot: This was a very spiritual story. You can feel it from the beginning, but it's not confirmed until the end. The things that Lexi goes through in the week that this story takes place are nothing short of divine encounters and spiritual warfare. It's hard to say much without giving anything away.
Characters: You learn about the characters what you need to know for the story to unfold, however, you don't really know the characters.
Themes: The theme of this book was forgiveness. Lexi's biggest struggle in life is forgiving the people who have so greatly wronged her. She has to forgive herself, too, for she blames most of her problems on her own actions.
Emotion: There were times during this book, especially in the beginning, when certain characters came in to play, I was honestly scared. I could feel the deception and confusion that the character brought jumping off the page.
Overall: This book was very interesting to read and very hard to put down. I would sit down to read one chapter and found myself unable to stop. The spiritual side of the book made it easy to get wrapped up in and you always want to know what's going to happen next.

This is a riveting story of a young woman who is being torn between what is truth & what are lies. She cannot discern what is truly happening in her life until her daughter is abducted. It is then she seeks to know the truth & is able to act on it. I enjoyed the tension of good verses evil & the personification of each. The reader can easily see what the main character cannot; even so the reader wants to help Lexi see the truth for herself. Not Erin Healy's best but still a good read. What would you do as a single mother with 2 different men vying for your daughter's attention & you don't know which of these persons can be trusted?
