Reviews

"Promises of the Heart is a multi-leveled, beautifully written story that will glow in readers' hearts long after the last page is turned." -- Kristan Higgins, New York Times bestselling author of Good Luck with That and Life and Other Inconveniences

Another trademark Nan Rossiter story, crafted with the tools that sustain us: heart, hope, and family! A touching novel that explores the meaning of faith and family as one couple's search to complete their home merges with one child's need of a life-saving second chance. Once again, Nan Rossiter weaves together a multi-layered tale of the endurance of love and a reminder that the things we most wish for can come true, if we're open to receiving them in unexpected ways. These characters stayed with me long after the last page was turned! -- Hannah McKinnon
