Pilgrimage of Promise
By Cathy Bryant
A dusty stack of unopened love letters forces Bo and Mona Beth Miller to revisit a part of their past they’d rather leave buried–especially in the face of death. Only as they retrace history will they learn the truth about the shattered promise that threatens to come between them. But can their relationship endure the deception and sabotage they unearth, or will the experience compel them to trust more fully in the promises that never fail?
ISLAND BREEZES
If you’ve read the first three books in the Miller’s Creek series, you’re for sure going to want to read this book. If you haven’t read them, you’ll still want to read this one. Even though it’s a part of a series, it’s a good stand alone read.
But don’t start reading this book without a box of tissues handy. You’ll need a bunch of them. Don’t start with a box that is almost empty or you’ll have to stop reading long enough to open a new box like I did.
You learned in an earlier book how Bo and Mona Beth finally got together. This book tells you the story of their young love and why it never progressed to marriage sooner.
You’re going to figure out just how fitting the title of this book really is. I was too involved with the story to figure it out until the end when it smacked me in the face.
Now I have to read the first three books again. First I have to drink a couple gallons of water. I’m sure that’s how much my tear ducts poured out, and I don’t want to get dehydrated.
Cathy, please tell us there will be more Miller’s Creek novels. Even though I can’t live in Miller’s Creek, your books keep my heart there.
***A special thanks to Cathy Bryant for providing a review copy.***

I really glad I had the opportunity to do so. I loved the book even as it proceeded to rip my heart out.
