TESTING TESSA (HEALING THE WOUNDED HEART, BOOK 1)
By Donna Schlachter
Tessa Mayer has her nursing certificate and travels to a closed communal colony to be their medical professional. She particularly begins to care for Seth and his asthmatic son Caleb. Living in the colony, she sees and hears all sorts of things.
Melody fancies herself as Seth's next wife. She's led a crowded life with her large family of too many brothers and sisters.
Seth and Tessa show us that God is present in their lives, and I appreciated that.
The book is a mystery, with some suspense, and a trigger warning thrown in. I didn't care for Melody, I don't like to read books where children are mistreated. All in all, the book evens out and is a HEA (Happily Ever After), but there wasn't enough closure for me regarding Melody. I fell in love with Caleb and Seth, as the author intended.
I received a complimentary copy of #TestingTessa from the author #DonnaSchlachter I was under no obligation to post a review. #inspyfiction #ChristianFiction #HistoricalFiction #Nursing #Asthma #childabuse #triggerwarning
