Title: Return to Me Author: Robin Lee Hatcher Publisher: Zondervan ISBN: 978-0-310-25804-8 Genre: Inspirational/Contemporary/Romance Roxy Burke fled her small town life ages
ago to become a Nashville country music superstar. Her former boyfriend, Wyatt,
has become a Christian and is planning on becoming a minister, and he is now
engaged to Roxy’s sister, Elena. Living in the land of country music
wasn’t as easy as Roxy dreamed, and now she’s just two steps away from losing
her apartment and starvation with no other options open to her. Now she has no
choice but to return home, to the small town she never wanted to see again.
Roxy’s father welcome’s her home with
open arms, but her arrival throws the family into turmoil and Roxy feels guilty
for causing this. Like the story of the prodigal son, Elena is unhappy with her
sister’s return, especially after Wyatt begins to express his doubts about their
engagement. And Roxy struggles with her father’s unconditional love for her.
Isn’t she more deserving of rejection? Will she learn to accept God’s
grace? Return to Me is another winner by bestselling author, Robin Lee Hatcher. Roxy’s story is all to familiar for
Nashville hopefuls, and yet the reader can’t help but feel sorry for her, in
spite of all her bad decisions. The story is very close to the Biblical story of
the prodigal son; the faith message is very well woven in. Fans of Robin Lee Hatcher aren’t going to want to miss Return to Me. The story will tug at your heartstrings. Discussion questions and a chapter of another one of Ms. Hatcher’s books, Loving Libby is included at the end. 12.99. 271 pages.
