Prism Book Group has released another book in the "Love is..." series of romances based on 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. Hoping for Joy by Penelope Marzec is about love always hoping.
About the Book:
Hannah stares at the diamond ring on her finger. Her hopes
for a wedding fade as Logan puts off the date. Does he love her anymore? Should
she hand him the ring and move on? Should Hannah stop praying for a fiancé with
no faith?
Logan hopes to save his sister from her addiction while helping his father raise his young niece. With his life in turmoil, Logan’s dreams vanish. One night, his sister holds a knife to Hannah’s throat and robs her. Will Hannah forgive him? What will he do with Joy, his sister’s child? Where can he turn for help?

My Review:
One distracted fiancé is an understatement. Logan is so busy
trying to get control of not only his life, but also that of his family. In the
process, he loses sight of the things and people precious to him, not the least
of which is his faith.
When Hannah wonders if there’s any cause to hope for a
future with Logan. It takes some family drama and a real close encounter with
the depths of despair to help everything see the truth of what’s important.
Lovingly told romantic story of realigning life’s purpose
and realizing we can’t and shouldn’t try to be in control of everything.
Multiple viewpoints, nice short, but not simple read.
