This was an excellent book, now I am hoping Lynn will write a sequel to Long Way Home so that Jimmy can find love and Peggy realize her dreams. It would be great if Peggy's "Pops" could come to terms with his faith and neglect of his daughter who is a tender hearted forgiving and wise young lady. These characters came alive and really were testimonials of faith. Love, love lost, extreme adversity and triumph, journeys of faith and a wonderful picture of a wonderful faithful God. Lynn writes in a way that scripture comes alive. I have binged of Lynn Austin books in the last few months. She consistently delivers. I believe i have now read most of her books. Lynn are now my fave Christian fiction writer.
