Dani Prescott finds out when she encounters Brett Somers, the man who destroyed her mother&#8217;s reputation. One encounter leads to another &#8211; Dani can&#8217;t seem to escape the man. And as she learns more about him, her compassionate nature softens her heart toward him.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, Brett is the character from &#8220;Where She Belongs&#8221; that I really didn&#8217;t like. Fortunately, since he is the hero of &#8220;When Love Arrives&#8221;, my heart softened toward him much as Dani&#8217;s did. I really enjoyed the banter between Dani and Brett and liked watching their relationship develop despite the secrets both held close. I found myself totally immersed in their story and was sorry to reach the last page.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When Love Arrives&#8221; is an emotionally charged story of forgiveness and restoration with a strong dose of romance. I have loved this series thus far and am eagerly looking forward to the next installment.<a href=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-10857\" title=\"divider2\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"317\" height=\"61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2.png 317w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/divider2-150x28.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 317px) 100vw, 317px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><em>A free copy of this book was provided for review by Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.

During an interview about the plane crash that killed his parents, he blamed Dani&#8217;s mother. But the crash killed her as well. Vowing to restore her mother&#8217;s reputation, Dani has been following Brett and taking photos, hoping to find something she can use to discredit him. But when she catches his eye instead, she quickly finds herself agreeing to a date. Brett knows this mystery girl is hiding something&#8211;but he&#8217;s got his own secrets to keep. What will happen when he discovers who she really is?<\/p>\n<p><strong>ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_19849\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-19849\" class=\"size-full wp-image-19849\" src=\"http:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Johnnie-Alexander.jpg\" alt=\"Photo Credit: \u00a9 Jodie Westfall Photography\" width=\"290\" height=\"193\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Johnnie-Alexander.jpg 290w, https:\/\/www.daysongreflections.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/Johnnie-Alexander-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 290px) 100vw, 290px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-19849\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo Credit: \u00a9 Jodie Westfall Photography<\/p><\/div>\n<p><b>Johnnie Alexander<\/b> is the award-winning author of <i>Where Treasure Hides<\/i> and <i>Where She Belongs<\/i>.
