Letting Go - a review

Lawyer Diane Simmons is beautiful and successful on the outside, but beneath this facade are some deeply rooted issues and insecurities that stem from an abusive childhood. Single father Dave is at risk of losing his adopted son and seeks Diane’s counsel. This is not the typical shallow love story, however. There is so much depth to this one in terms of the human emotion and the character development. In typical Sutton fashion, there are some ‘touchy’ subjects that surface, (and I don’t mean the physical, although that is sufficient to satisfy the romance lover.) It also has a very strong redemptive message and comes from a straight up Christian worldview, yet this aspect never feels forced, but is always tasteful and genuine. I know this sounds cliché, but I really couldn’t put this one down. I finally went to bed in exhaustion, but first thing in the morning I had to finish it – even before I did my dishes! Now THAT is a good book! It’s another winner for the author to add to her already bulging arsenal.
