Here we have Rachel Knicely and minister Nicholas Adams's love story. I enjoyed the family dynamics and the few moments where there were actual romance, but all and all this was not for me. The writing felt too detailed and it seemed to never end, and also the overly christian parts had me rolling my eyes. I mean, we know they are christians and they read the bible and pray. But is it necessary to tell us they do this christian things every 2 lines?

I'm sure most people would enjoy this, just not my style of romance novel.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the ebook ARC!

Here For You is the second installment in the Family is Forever series. Three Sisters has taken on the responsibility of taking care of their Aunt Tweet, each one is taking over the role as caregiver for six months at a time. In this story it is Rachel‘s turn and Aunt Tweets health is declining very rapidly and it is taking a toll on Rachel. Tabitha, Rachel’s sister puts a call in for Minister Nicholas Adams to visit her aunt and sister for prayer. When visiting the two he finds himself attracted to Rachel and ends up becoming her caregiver.


Just like the first story in this series it really hit home and touched my heart tremendously. I understand what these sisters went through and how it affected them. I enjoyed this story very much, it was very relatable and had some funny parts. I believe everything happens for a reason and people are in our lives for a season and reason. Thanks to her sister Rachel was given Minister Adams at the right season just when she needed him when her faith was starting to waiver. This was an emotional storyline, as caregivers we give so much to everyone else and we forget what we need. Great job author Pat Simmons. I highly recommend this series.

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

In the second book to this series, Pat Simmons takes you on an emotional journey that will keep you wondering what will happen next all the way to the end. Aunt Tweet has been in the Knicley's girls lives since the beginning. The three of them decide to take care of their elderly aunt, who has been afflicted with Alzheimer's. Rachel is the baby of the family, and her turn is up. While she is trying to keep her mind from going crazy, she meets Nicholas Adams, a minister sent to pray for her and her aunt. As time passes and they start to get close, something happens that rocks the faith of everyone involved. At this point, only God can help. But is his will for them to be together, or is one of them on a temporary assignment?

You will need tissue while reading this book. Not only was this an emotional and tear jerking read, it was nice to see an update to some of the characters in the first book. Pat has a way of drawing you in from the very beginning until you don't want to stop reading. Very well done job

I received a copy of this book via Netgalley and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.

It well written and I liked the characters but the story is slow and it didn't keep my attention.
Not my cup of tea.
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.
