Sep 26, Kim Justice rated it liked it Shelves: Author Rebekah Lyn has wrote a very good story line. Her main character Julianne Finnegan struggles with several real life situations. Even though I did enjoy reading Julianne for the most part I was just not really into the book.

I must say that it did not hold my attention as well as I felt I was expecting it too. The theme was good, the characters where good. Just that, an okay read. And just a note here to say that this is only my opinion, you must take a chance a read for yourself. Any one struggling with the same issues may receive more from the book than I did.

So due to the above I am giving this book a Breath of Life Rating of: I received this book in exchange for my review. The opinions are mine. And your opinion may differ. Sep 10, Heather rated it liked it. I thought this author had a nice idea, but the execution very much was missing. For instance, one major issue was a overformality in the characters' speach.

They said "I will" instead of "I'll" all the time, making the book seem so formal. Also, among other things, I thought the religious of the aspect of the book should have been explored much earlier, as far as Julianne's character went. Sep 17, Brandi Davis rated it it was ok. Another book I read because it was free on my kindle. The book was okay just not my cup of tea. Sep 18, Karen Gibson rated it liked it Shelves: I enjoy Christian fiction but like to see the faith of the characters more integrated into the book rather than revealed in short "religious" segments.

Apr 17, Beverly rated it really liked it Shelves: Julianne always felt she was growing up in her big brother's shadow. Michael the overachiever, Michael the success story.
