Red Like Crimson // Book Review

From the Back Cover:
Sin has caused a rift in their relationship. When Adrianne, a Bible college student, realizes she’s expecting a baby, she faces a monumental decision. Filled with guilt and shame, she makes the impulsive and regrettable choice to run—to leave college, to leave the relationship, and to return home to her parents in Pennsylvania. The fog of shame has altered her thinking. Staying in the relationship will prevent the man she loves from fulfilling his God-appointed call to become a missionary. But, as the days, months and years tick by, Adrianne regrets her decision. After coming to grips with God’s grace, she attempts to find Chris—her daughter’s father, so that she can share the truth of what she’s done. Unfortunately, he is impossible to locate, now that he’s ministering in the jungles of Nicaragua. With all hopes of locating him gone, a reconciliation feels hopeless. Chris-rejected, confused, and heartbroken at the loss of the woman he loves-has finished school and finds himself in Nicaragua, loving life as a missionary. But the void left by Adrianne's unexplained departure remains. When Chris returns to the States for a friend's wedding, is his unexpected meeting with Adrianne a coincidence or a "God incidence?" Can they put aside the past and embrace a future together as a family?


Red Like Crimson is a really good book. This is only the second book I've read by this author, but I'm definitely looking forward to reading more of her books soon.
Even though this book has some harder issues like wedlock, it's a super clean book. There's no descriptive talk about it or any going back to "re-live" the scene which was really nice.
The only thing that I didn't really like, and it didn't draw away from the story or anything, but a couple times it was hard tell which character was talking. I think it might've been the formatting of the book. It only happened like two times, so it wasn't a big deal, just a bit confusing. ;)


I give this book 9 out of 10 R's
