With the discovery of her birth father, 12-year-old River has definite thoughts about how her life should turn out--and that certainly does not include any of the challenges that keep popping up! It's not easy to decide if she should live with Gram, who has been her family for the past ten years, or with her father, who she's over-the-moon to have just met but knows little about. When River gets diagnosed with scoliosis, she fears it will impact her hopes and dreams. River decides to ask God for help. When River makes a new friend, Carlos, she realizes that having scoliosis isn't so bad when she learns what Carlos deals with every day. As this tender-sweet story unfolds, River learns to persevere and stay hopeful that soon she will be part of a real family. Yes, her dream does come true...but not in the way she had planned!

The characters are well-developed and the author made me care deeply about what was happening to the main character, River, as she struggled to adjust to the many changes and challenges in her life. The characters and the plot were refreshing and the ending was unexpected, but very satisfying. I look forward to reading more by this author. Review: Awesome book!! - Awesome book!! My 11year old daughter couldn’t put the book down. She finished the book in a few days!! Everyone in the house received juicy details of each chapter! My daughter recommends it!

I read this book in one sitting, shortly after finishing "My Name Is River". A wonderful continuing story of River Starling's life, but able to be a stand alone book. Discussion notes at the end make this a worthwhile read for ages 12 & up. Recommended highly.

I loved this book! Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down! The continuing story of River, and how there are some things in life that don't work out as you would hope, but sometimes they are even better!! Very good story!

Make sure to read the first book..
Great book and continuation to the first book. We loved every minute of it. We read both books and it was nice to see how River's life came full circle...

Wonderful!
This is book 2. The first book is called My Name is River. I read it with my tween daughter. It’s a great read on friendship, faith and right vs. Wrong. Me and my daughter couldn’t wait for bedtime to find out what would happen next.
