SYNOPSIS:

Letting go to build a bridge…

Dakota Kelly wants her painful past to disappear. A plan to start afresh is derailed when she co-inherits her late grandfather’s farm with Chance Johnson, the man responsible for the scars on her heart. 
But Chance isn’t the only ghost from the past. Someone else is out to get her and will stop at nothing to get what he wants. 
Will Chance and Dakota lay aside their grudges to restore the old farmhouse and bridge, or will evil forces sabotage their attempt at forgiveness?

My thoughts:

When Cathy Bryant first contacted me for a book review and a giveaway for my readers I checked her website and spotted the words Home, Faith, Grace, Promise and Forgiveness. In her introduction to the spiritual themes of her series, Cathy describes these simple words as overflowing with God's goodness. I liked that!

A Bridge Unbroken, a Miller's Creek novel is my first by Cathy Bryant and well worth reading for its wholesome goodness. This lady knows how to reach your heart as she reminds you not all scars are visible!

When she comes back to Miller's Creek Dakota is looking for a fresh start whilst also looking over her shoulder for troubles sure to come. The inheritance of a farm is God sent but there are stipulations to be met and questions sure to arise starting with why she changed her name since she left town. 

Chance Johnson has had his share of hard breaks and finds it difficult to forgive her for running away from him years ago, something she seems very good at. 
Just when they reluctantly team up to remodel the farm, Dakota's past catches up with her, this time endangering Chance as well. 
Be ready for a few twists in this story, Cathy's tale will keep you on edge till the end!

Written with a sound Christian heart, Cathy's latest novel offers not just an interesting story but an emotional connection with rich characters, great setting and a lot of soul searching. God remains a forgiving God and His love never leaves us.

Note to Readers: A Bridge Unbroken is # 5 in the series but is easily read as a stand alone!
