When Corbin finds a two-year old on his doorstep, he is unsure of who he is. The note with him, says he's his little brother. His parents are alcoholics and his childhood was not the best, to say the least. While having, Mikey, his brother in his care, is probably the better option, Corbin has no idea how to take care of a child. In comes Samantha. Corbin had a huge crush on her in high school, and it seems like those feelings haven't gone away. When she tells him that she has a background in child care, Corbin feels like the luckiest man. But, Samantha is a recovering alcoholic herself and has a few secrets she's keeping. Will these things keep Corbin for going for the love he deserves?

Thank you to Harlequin and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

I loved the idea for this story, but for me, it just didn't hit the mark for me. It felt like everything was very surface level and not much depth to the characters. I don't want to give too much of the story away. This is a romance, but also Christian Fiction. I enjoy both of those genres, but I don't think I will read more books by this author.

Review--Best Friends Forever by Kimberla Lawson Roby

Let me preface this review by saying that this year, I have been in a real reading slump as most of you who have been following me know.  This book, short as it was, gave me back my reading mojo and I've already started on my next read.  Thank you Ms. Roby for getting me back to reading which I so love!!

Best Friends Forever by Kimberla Lawson Roby
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Celine and Keith have been married for 12 years. Although, for the past month, something has been off with Keith. In the same week that Celine finds out that she has breast cancer, her husband announces to her that he is leaving her. Devastated and overwhelmed by all that is going on, Celine has to do her best to stay strong for her health as well as for her young daughter, Kassie.

Kimberla Lawson Roby really knows how to write a book that will pull at your emotions. You can feel for the characters and I wanted to jump in the story and help. This book made my eyes fill with tears on more than one occasion. This is a great novella and a quick read and if you have never read anything by Kimberla Lawson Roby, this is a great book to start with. I finished in a little over 24 hours. Her Christian Fiction is always inspiring.
