MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n “Healing of the Heart” was a warm yet sometimes poignant story with a fairly unique plot. Ruby McCoy was a young woman who carried a load of secrets and undeserved guilt on her shoulders as she and her mother moved from one town to another – trying to atone for the sins of her deceased father. Yet no matter how much money she spent and how much good she did, Ruby could never overcome the belief that if people knew her identity they would hate her. When Ruby moved to Fairplay, she immediately met Sheriff Rex Truett and was immediately attracted to him. Rex knew that Ruby was hiding something but little did he know just how close to home her secrets would hit.<\/p>\n A story of love and forgiveness, “Healing of the Heart” was a book that was both enjoyable and encouraging. I was drawn to several of the characters, especially the two children who added a special touch to the story. It was gratifying to watch the positive spiritual growth in Rex and Ruby but especially in Ruby’s mother who seemed to be a different person entirely by the end of the story. The well-paced plot had just the right blend of drama, danger, and romance with a few humorous touches along the way. After reading “Healing of the Heart” I am now wanting to read the other books of the series. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book that was provided by Celebrate Lit Publicity Group. A favorable review was not required and all views expressed are my own.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n Click to purchase<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/div>\n When Ruby McCoy and her mother arrive in Fairplay and promptly move into the biggest mansion around, they are the talk of the town. But while Mrs. McCoy worries about ribbons, trunks, and wallpaper, Ruby rolls up her sleeves. Since the hanging of her notorious gangster father five years ago, Ruby, hiding under an assumed name, is on a mission to right her father\u2019s wrongs. She is determined to spend every penny of her inherited \u201cblood money\u201d helping those who paid the price for her father\u2019s crimes. But she didn\u2019t plan on falling in love.<\/p>\n Sheriff Rex Truett doesn\u2019t trust Ruby and doesn\u2019t care who knows it. The keeper of Fairplay\u2019s law and order makes it his business to find out why a stranger\u2014especially a beautiful, rich, female stranger\u2014would set up businesses, donate to schools, hire workmen to rebuild houses, and provide access to the best medical care. But when a cholera epidemic sweeps through the city, he is forced to reconsider.<\/p>\n Will Ruby have the courage to tell Rex her family secret? And will love or justice win in Rex\u2019s heart?<\/p>\n Click here<\/a> to purchase your copy.<\/strong><\/p>\n ABOUT THE AUTHOR:<\/strong><\/p>\n Her books have over 3700 ratings on Goodreads with the first two books in The Secrets of Sterling Street series, Currency of the Heart<\/em>and Guardians of the Heart<\/em> receiving multiple four and five star reviews on book review and retail sites.<\/p>\n BLOG STOPS:<\/strong><\/p>\n November 22: Bibliophile Reviews <\/span><\/a><\/p>\n November 22: Jeanette\u2019s Thoughts<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n November 23: Neverending Stories<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n November 23: Lane Hill House<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n November 24: Reviewing Novels Online<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n November 24: Christian Bookaholic<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n November 25: Christian Author: A.M.
