Review
Being A caregiver is not easy. Just ask Tabitha Knicley.
She, along with her sisters, have agreed to become
caregivers to their aging Aunt Tweet, who was found
across state lines and diagnosed with Alzheimer’s.
Tabitha soon learns that she, and her sisters, might
have bitten off more than they can chew.
While living with Tabitha, who has the first six
months, Aunt Tweet has been wandering off and ends
up on the porch of Marcus Whittingham, a business
owner of a cleaning service that offers jobs to ex cons.
Guilty of accusing Tabitha of elder Abuse, Marcus
soon realizes that caregivers need someone to take care
of them as well. While he’s taking care of Tabitha with
God’s help, will romance develop?
There were several things that I enjoyed about
the story. Tabitha and her sisters doing research to
understand everything about their aunt’s condition;
Aunt Tweet prompting Tabitha and Marcus to start
going to church and even professing salvation.
Especially loved the still small voice of God speaking
and assuring the three of them that He is always there.
There were times I had to hold back tears, and times I
couldn’t stop laughing, which is something I experience
often when reading a novel by Pat Simmons. I am
expectantly waiting the next book in the series.
