What Remains True by Nancy Naigle -- Reviewed

 



About the book:

Title: What Remains True

Author: Nancy Naigle

Working at a little shop on Main Street in a small town is exactly the break that executive Merry Anna Foster needs following her divorce. She's made a bet with her ex-husband that she can live on the amount of money she's giving him in alimony. If she can do it, then Kevin will have to stop complaining and leave her alone. But after three months of this new life, will she even want to leave Antler Creek?

Adam Locklear, a bull rider and owner of the local feed store, is having the best year of his rodeo career. He's also a bit distracted by the pretty new neighbor living in his old bunkhouse. But Adam has no time for matters of the heart. He's got his future all mapped out, and that future doesn't involve a woman just yet. It doesn't involve parenting a little girl either. However, Carly Fowler still suddenly leaves five-year-old Zan--the daughter Adam didn't know he had--in his care.

Is it possible that the future holds a life even better than what Merry Anna and Adam had each dreamed of? One that includes both tenderness and even love--not just for each other but for Zan too.

My Thoughts


This is my first book by Nancy Naigle and it won't be my last. I love finding new authors to enjoy and this book was amazing! 

Having been through the horrors of divorce I could identify with Merry Anna. Once I healed I married a cowboy of my own who introduced me to PBR and the rodeo. This book was like reading a part of my life over the last eleven years.

I also love kids so having Zan show up just added to the fantastic storyline.

The main characters and secondary characters were well-rounded and their struggles were real and believable.


The spiritual thread was present but not overwhelming or preachy. In fact, I really liked the way Ms. Naigle presented the faith element. 


I absolutely loved this book and I guarantee if you've never been to a PBR or a rodeo you'll put that on your list.


This is a highly recommended read. 


I received a copy via the publisher. I was not required to write a review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
