12 Days of Thanks Giveaway: Trivia Puzzle Piece and Review of Through Infinity by Libby Austin

I'm very excited to be taking part in Libby Austin's 12 Days of Thanks Giving.  The cover for this book is what first caught my eye and the blurb really intrigued me. I also love giveaways and reading new authors so, there was no way I could pass this up!


Synopsis
Candice and Jason Woodruff had everything going for them: a strong marriage, the family they’d dreamed of, and successful businesses. When they made their wedding vows, they promised to love each other through infinity and beyond…but Candice doesn’t remember making that vow. Candice doesn’t remember the last eighteen years.

After a medical emergency, Candice awakens to find herself a married mother of four. She’s surrounded by a loving family of strangers, but Candice struggles to claim an identity while learning to be a wife and mother.

Candice is no longer the same woman Jason fell in love with all those years ago. Can they learn to love each other in this new reality?

Through Infinity is one woman’s journey as she rediscovers the love of her husband and children. But will that new found love be strong enough to carry them through infinity and beyond…

Review

 ★★★★ stars

I find amnesia both fascinating and hard to read about.  It's extremely difficult to find out who we are and then realize we have to start all over again when we can't remember.  It feels like sort of a blessing and a curse. I felt really bad for Candice "Candy", Jason, and their family at having to figure out their relationships all over again.  

The story flows at a rapid pace and I found it very hard to put down.  I loved how supportive Jason and Candy's families were of this difficult time for their family and how the story focused on the strength family can provide.  I especially enjoyed the kids and seeing how they familiarized themselves with their mother again.

There were moments when I was teary eyed, moments when I giggled and smiled, and moments when I laughed out loud.  I loved seeing Candy "find" herself and what she wanted.  I love Jason's integrity and his will power.  I'm looking for a man like that.  I really enjoyed seeing their love blossom again.  I have a feeling their story will be continuing and I'm looking forward to it.  

Libby Austin's debut novel is beautiful and I'm really looking forward to more books from her. I was slightly surprised at how much I enjoyed this "middle-aged" love story.  It really wasn't about how old they were, but all about finding love again.  The story wasn't melt your pages hot, but it still had some heat and lots of chemistry between Jason and Candice.

About the Author
One day some words came to mind, so I wrote them down. Soon the words became sentences, which formed paragraphs, which, in turn, formed chapters. Before long, those words had become a book.

When I'm not reading or writing, I'm a wife, mother, and business owner. I've lived on the Gulf, East, and West Coasts, but as a born and raised Southern girl, my favorite will always be the Gulf Coast. There's just no place like home...
