March 15th, 2021. Filed under: Monday's Musings.
Misty is a single mom, struggling to give her daughter a better life.
Misty Stewart found Christ shortly after the birth of her baby, causing her to make drastic changes in her life. Short-tempered and street-smart, she realizes being around her unsaved, dysfunctional family is draining her, so she feels the Lord wants her to distance herself from her relatives. She hopes this distance from her family will allow her to deepen her faith, making it possible for her to raise her two-year-old daughter, Jennifer, in a better environment. Struggling to raise her daughter alone, she bonds with her new neighbor, Sterling Richards. She’s drawn to kind-hearted Sterling, but wonders about the deep sadness that he harbors. Sterling has familial problems that run deep, and romance is the last thing on his mind.
Sterling Richards, a professional baker, is grieving over the recent death of his father/business partner. Since his father left him as the sole beneficiary of his life insurance policy, his relationship with his identical twin brothers is strained. Why would his father fail to include his twin sons as part of the inheritance? He now struggles to mend the relationship with his brothers, struggling to run his father’s bakery alone.

Can Sterling and Misty find the courage to love one another?
ISLAND BREEZES
Sterling’s father died and left him to deal with his younger brothers. Then his neighbor’s niece moved in and brought problems with her as she tried to deal with her daughter’s father.
Sterling had problems of his own. Why did he have to get involved with other people’s problems? He was already running on a sleep deficit.
Some of the problems involve secrets. . . Will those secrets come out and help the characters do a better job of coping? Or will they make things more difficult?
BTW, will the guy end up with the girl?
