Tanner Hughes is a retired Army Ranger. He's searching for a family member in Asheboro, North Carolina before he heads out on the road again. His path crosses that of Kaitlyn - a doctor - and her two kids. And there's one more player in this triangle....
I was immediately caught up by the first few pages. I settled in for the afternoon.
Sparks' characters are always so wonderfully drawn. They're someone you'd like to know. And that's what Tanner and Kaitlyn feel as well. Their interactions are respectful and mindful and I had high hopes for their future.
But the road to happiness is not always smooth sailing. There are some truly antagonists that are awful. I didn't even want to read their chapters, but I did.
And that third person...their life is visited and recounted. (Have a tissue or two ready)
How these lives interact with each other is at times a miracle. Sparks' plot does reference faith.
A satisfying read on so many levels. See for yourself - read an excerpt of Counting Miracles.
