Series: Steeple Hill Love Inspired

Bk #61--My thoughts: Okay...I finally read it (and the sequel too). Though I've had mixed feelings about the inspirational romances I've read so far, I thoroughly enjoyed CWs books and writing style. Anyhow, I thought this story was sweet and so heartwarming. And I really loved the 3 central characters. In fact, my only complaint about this book was the fact the couple got engaged before they ever really kissed each other. For me personally, a kiss tells all. Compatible. Passion. Tenderness. etc. you get the picture.

Oh and great plus--Mountain Dew Apple Dumpling recipe at the end. Haven't tried them yet but I will soon! I love recipes...

Back cover blurb: "My name's Bradley. I'm eight and have cancer. i want to meet a Special Forces soldier more than anything. Well, almost anything. Having a family would be nice."

U.S. Air Force pararescue jumper Joel Montgomery promised to make a sick child's wish come true. Well, not the family part--not with Joel's past. And so despite vowing never to set foot back in Refuge, Illinois, Joel parachuted onto the boy's school lawn to a huge smile. But another smile unexpectedly stole Joel's heart: that of Bradley's beautiful teacher, Amber Stanton, who was trying to adopt the boy. And trying to show Joel it was time for new vows.
