LitFuse Blog Tour: The Shadow of Your Smile by Susan May Warren



About the book: 

The Shadow of Your Smile A beautiful blanket of snow may cover the quaint town of Deep Haven each winter, but it can’t quite hide the wreckage of Noelle and Eli Hueston’s marriage. After twenty-five years, they’re contemplating divorce . . . just as soon as their youngest son graduates from high school. But then an accident erases part of Noelle's memory. Though her other injuries are minor, she doesn’t remember Eli, their children, or the tragedy that has ripped their family apart. What’s more, Noelle is shocked that her life has turned out nothing like she dreamed it would. As she tries to regain her memory and slowly steps into her role as a wife and mother, Eli helps her readjust to daily life with sometimes-hilarious, sometimes-heartwarming results. But can she fall in love again with a man she can’t remember? Will their secrets destroy them . . . or has erasing the past given them a chance for a future? Read the story behind the story here: http://www.susanmaywarren.com/books/the-shadow-of-your-smile.

My Thoughts and Review:

I have enjoyed Susan May Warren books for a few years now, so I was excited when I was selected to read and review the 6th book in the Deep Haven series, The Shadow of Your Smile. The Shadow of Your Smile is another "Winner" for me! Susan draws the reader in with the tragedies and emotions of the book. I started reading this book and just couldn't put it down, I felt like my heart and mind had jumped right into the book and the events were almost real life happenings! I was riding high in emotions for Noelle and Eli over the loss of the daughter, their thoughts of divorce after 25yrs of marriage and then Noelle's memory loss. I have never experienced such tragedy personally, but I can see how and why tragedy can cause such drama and trama in a family. I really appreciate that The Shadow of Your Smile really shows the reader that we need to trust in God and not rely on our own plans. "Our plans are not always God plans".

I highly recommend The Shadow of Your Smile, you will not be disappointed! Though this is the 6th book in the series, it is also a "stand alone novel". Susan May Warren is a great writer and this book is no exception!

I would like to read "The Shadow of Your Smile." I have not become acquainted with Deep Haven and would like to meet the people who live there. Community coming alongside is important in supporting lives of families, in their loss and in their rebuilding. Thank you for your review.
