Blog Tour: Healing Promises by Amy Wallace

About Healing Promises:

Facing a new threat.
When FBI Agent Clint Rollins takes a bullet during a standoff, it might just save his life. But not even the ugly things he’s seen during his years working in the Crimes Against Children Unit could prepare him for the overwhelming powerlessness of hospital tests revealing an unexpected diagnosis. If only Sara weren’t retreating into doctor mode…he needs his wife now more than ever.

Frozen in fear.
Sara Rollins is an oncologist with a mission–beating cancer when she can, easing her patients’ suffering at the very least. Now the life of her tall Texan husband is at stake. She never let the odds steal her hope before, but in this case, the question of God’s healing promises is personal. Can she hold on to the truth she claimed to believe?

Faith under fire.
As Clint continues to track down a serial kidnapper despite his illness, former investigations haunt his nightmares, pushing him beyond solving the case into risking his life and career. Clint struggles to believe God is still the God of miracles. Especially when he needs not one, but two. Everything in his life is reduced to one all-important question: Can God be trusted?

My thoughts:

I have not had the chance to read the first book in this series (Ransomed Dreams) but I've got to put it in my to-be-read pile. This book has such a wonderful cast of characters, so true to life, who face some pretty tough odds. You feel their heart-break and see their fears and failings as Clint and Sara face cancer head on and Clint and his colleagues desperately search for a serial kidnapper/killer. But even as Clint and Sara are facing a time of great trial, hope comes to them in a way they don't really expect. The ending of this story definitely did not disappoint - and I can't wait to read the next book in the series - Hanna and Michael's story - due out Spring 2009.
