The Desire by Dan Walsh and Gary Smalley, Book Tour and Book Review

About

Can faith build a bridge between their dreams?
For two years, Allan and Michele have been trying to have a baby. The emotional ride has been taking a toll on their hearts--and their relationship. Michele is obsessed with researching fertility treatments while Allan seems content to spend his time--and their money--on supporting displaced children in Africa. Something's got to give. But they both hope it's not their marriage.

Still, God has a plan for Allan and Michele that they could never have imagined. And all it takes to set it in motion is a change of heart . . .

My review;

 

I just finished reading The Desire. It was a beautiful, heartwarming story. I was enthralled by Michele's and Allan's story from the first page. This is a story of love, family and faith in God. It is always an uplift to read about a couple that finds their true calling and the answer that they have been hoping and waiting to hear for  so long. I give this novel a 5/5. I was given this book by Revell Publishing and all opinions are my own.
