Title: Eternity Genre: Inspirational/Romantic/Suspense Misplaced love and secret passions lead two best friends on an unforeseen adventure to ultimately discover each other's true feelings. But, not until they nearly lose each other do they begin to understand the undeniable force that binds them. Aaron thinks he knows what he wants and struggles through relationships to find it. When his new roommate Drew begins dating a girl named Mandy, Aaron is sure it cannot be his ex-finance and is devastated when he discovers it is indeed she. Aaron develops a plan to break them up. A plan involving his friend Harmony. Harmony has never had a serious relationship. She has lived in the shadow of her sister. Her heart secretly belongs to Aaron and when he solicits her assistance for the 'Plan', she does not hesitate to say yes. Ms. Stallings masterful storytelling skills shine and she plaits a tight story with forgiveness, compassion, and love. While Eternity does not have a faith thread woven through it, the book does contain a "moral" message instead. "All of my books have an element of 'living in tune with God's laws' whether God is expressly mentioned or not. To me, Eternity has a more practical-spiritual message than a totally spiritual-spiritual message," Stallings said in an interview. Eternity is a compelling story. The story line is persuasive and the characters are realistic, so much so that I did not want the story to end. Once started, it was difficult to put down and I finished the 265 page book, in three sittings. Eternity is a wonderful read and should be the next on your TBR (To Be Read) list. My favorite line: "Hello, you." (When you read Eternity, you will understand) |
