I love the warm feeling you get when reading Lisa Wingate’s books.

In this beautiful story of two women with sad childhoods, Kai is leaving hurricane-torn Perdida when she meets up with a trio of older ladies who were on their way to a cruise ship when they had to turn around because of the hurricane.

They team up while evacuating and return to Daily, Texas where Kai stays with Donetta and meets her family.

It’s a sweet story with both Kai and Donetta finding out truths about their past and finding bravery to face their futures.

Cute story, third in series set in fictional small town in Texas. Texas readers will enjoy the storyline involving young lady fleeing a hurricane.

According to the back of the book: "Kai Miller floats through life like driftwood tossed by waves. She's never put down roots in any one place--and she doesn't plan to. But when a chaotic hurricane evacuation lands her in Daily, Texas, she begins to think twice about her wayfaring existence. And when she meets hometown-boy Kemp Eldridge, she can almost picture settling down in Daily--until she discovers he may be promised to someone else. Daily has always been a place of refuge for those the wind blows in, but for Kai, it looks like it will be just another place to leave behind. Then again, Daily always has a few surprises in store--especially when Aunt Donetta has cooked up a scheme."

(Quoted so as not to spoil anything.)

Donetta and Kai narrate alternating chapters and Donetta talks in dialect which was a little annoying, especially at first. But they're both incredibly likable characters (and I'm guessing Donetta appears in the other Daily, Texas books so that's good).

Recommended for people who like fluffy love stories (not a slam; this book was incredibly fun to read) and/or Christian fiction.
