My Review
Love's Prophet is the third book of the First Street Church Romances, and it's definitely an emotional one.
Liam and his daughter, Molly Sue, live on the outskirts of Sweet Grove, keeping to themselves. Molly Sue, a sweet little seven year old girl, is home-schooled while her dad toils away in his home office. And where is Molly Sue's mother, you may ask? Well...she's gone. Passed away from cancer. Nope. I'm not crying. It's just raining on my face.
Molly Sue is on a mission. Her mother gave her a job to do, and boy, is she going to do it. Determination and strength flow through this little girl, and you can't help but love how adorable she is in going about doing her job.
Her father, though, is a bit reluctant to let his daughter play matchmaker. He doesn't want to tarnish the memories of his beautiful, beloved wife, even though he can't deny his feelings for Jennifer, the happy-go-lucky Sunday school teacher his daughter insists can be her new mommy.
Is Molly Sue successful in completing her task? Well, you'll just have to read the story and see what happens.
The amount of emotion in this book is pretty amazing. You'll run the gamut while reading it. Happiness, despair, hopefulness... those are just a few of the emotions that I powered through. And, yes, I did cry in a few places. While the flashbacks of Molly Sue and her mother are hard to read, the rest of the story is lighthearted and keeps things from getting too depressing.
Love's Prophet is another hit in Melissa Storm's sweet romance series, and if you haven't yet read the first two books - Love's Prayer and Love's Promise - I highly recommend you do so ASAP. You won't regret it.
Five very well deserved stars for this one.
