When past secrets hold the only key to hope for the future…
Caroline Chapman is reeling from a broken engagement. Determined to start again, she moves cross-country for her dream job of planning events in the historical mansions of Newport, Rhode Island. Just as her life is getting back on track, she gets an email that shakes her very foundations.
Linda Riley’s life looks picture perfect – a wonderful husband, two great kids, involved in church and the community. Then comes the diagnosis that shatters the facade. In order to save her son’s life, she must reveal secrets that can rip everything apart.
Connected by more than painful circumstances, these two women discover a sacred bond. In this beautiful story of love, loss, and the fight for life, Caroline and Linda experience the reality that life doesn’t always go according to The Plans We Made.

My Review of The Plans We Made:
This book was wonderful. It had so many different storylines (two specific ones) and the fact it was written by two different authors – it was written so seamlessly it wasn’t evident that it was written by two different people. The topics were heavy but written in a way that brought hope and encouragement. It was a wonderful book and I definitely will be reading more by these two authors (separate and together).
I received a copy of this book from the publishers but was not under any obligation to write a review. All opinions are strictly mine.
