Need You Now

Need You Now by Beth Wiseman 

About The Book: 

When big-city life threatens the safety of one of their children, Brad and Darlene Henderson move with their three teenagers from Houston to the tiny town of Round Top, Texas. Adjusting to small-town life is difficult for the kids, especially fifteen-year-old Grace who is coping in a dangerous way. Married life hasn't always been bliss, but their strong faith has carried Brad and Darlene through the difficult times. When Darlene takes a job outside the home for the first time in their marriage, the domestic tension rises. While working with special needs children at her new job, the widowed father of one of the students starts paying more attention to Darlene than is appropriate. Problem is, she feels like someone is listening to her for the first time in a long time. If Darlene ever needed God . . . it's now. 

My Thoughts: 

This book is full of a little bit of everything! But what really gets to you is the suspense. You turn each page rapidly, just dying to know what happens next. I can relate to Darlene, the mama in the story, really well. The author really rounded out her character well. Besides the mother in this story, I think you are also heavily drawn to the middle child, Grace, who deals with her issues in a dangerous way. A very good read! Great beach read for the Summer coming!
