Romance Of all the Beverly Lewis books that I've read, I think this one was my least favorite. The story, as a whole, was good but I didn't like the way it was written. The thing that bugged me the most was that an explanation for Melissa's being on the run was not given until almost 200(!!) pages into the book. I could see 30 or 40 pages---especially since the mystery started with the very first page---but 200??? It made for a "too quick" conclusion. If an explanation would have been given earlier on then the action would have been more intense throughout since the reader would have some understanding of what from and why Melissa was running. Still, I did choke back tears at the end and am overall glad that I read it. Usually avoid abridged books, accidently checked this out since it was by a favorite author, Beverly Lewis, and was surprised how well it was handled. FROM AMAZON: She prayed the day would never come, but when her past comes calling, Melissa James has no choice but to flee. Pursued and living on the run, she finds longed-for sanctuary in Amish country. Part thriller, part romance, Sanctuary is a compelling story of revenge, the price of freedom, and the solace found in friendship. This third book in the Crossroads series is so vastly different from the first two it is hard to believe it’s part of the series. Very little of it takes place in Amish country. It centers around a young non-Amish woman, her father, and her husband. The authors try to build suspense by waiting through most of the tale before divulging the secret connections, but by then, the impetus is lost. The conclusion is quickly wrapped up and falls flat. A disappointing end to a likewise series. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
