Precious Moments: Live Without You Book Review & Blog Tour

About the book:

Piper Redding is a loner, but lonely. Everyone she loves has abandoned her and opening her heart to others is just asking for more pain. She can't help but blame herself for her brother's tragic death six years ago, and in her guilt, she shuts herself off from the world. No one could love her-not even the God who promised to be there for her, but wasn't.

For paramedic Ezra Bryant, failure is not an option. He's had enough of it, and only by God's grace is able to put it behind him. But when a traumatic even brings Piper's greatest fear and Ezra's failures to light, can they use that even to allow God to mend their broken pieces? Can love triumph over fear, and grace over guilt?

My thoughts:

When I heard that Sarah Grace wrote a book, I was thrilled to be able to review it and be a part of the tour. Sarah Grace did a phenomenal job of writing her first book, Live Without You, and I really enjoyed reading it. The story is about a young lady who has nightmares because of her tragic past, and a man who struggles with the sadness and pain from his past. Both of them feel shame and guilt over what they did, or what they did not do, and they learn together to accept and embrace the freedom Christ gives to His children. The author did a good job of creating a wonderful message, as well as the lovely characters. There is lots of action, especially in the beginning, which pulls the reader into the story and keeps their attention. Even though this book is labeled as a 'contemporary Christian romance', I didn't find the main character's relationships to be the plot of the story; the romance was rather light and sweet and weaved throughout. The scenes that contained shootings and death were tastefully written, and I think those ages 13+ would enjoy this book. :)

About the author:

Sarah Grace Grzy is a voracious reader, and if it weren’t for this crazy thing called 'Life,' she’d be
tempted to spend all her days in front of a wood stove, book in one hand, coffee mug in the other.

A lover of learning, she finds enjoyment in many things and has more hobbies than she knows
what to do with. Sarah Grace is a freelance web and graphic designer, and when not working,
spending time with her ever-growing family, or reading, she can be found painting, playing the
piano, or fangirling with her sisters and friends. She inhabits the State of Great Lakes, and
wouldn’t want to live anywhere else—unless it meant she could have a baby penguin, in which
case, she’d gladly move to the South Pole.
