Fetching Sweetness by Dana Mentink

My review today is on the novel, Fetching Sweetness. This is the second book in the Love Unleashed Series. I loved Sit, Stay, Love so I was thrilled to get this copy in the mail. Dana is such a great writer. This story is well written, very humorous, and heart-warming. I know you're going to love it.

Stephanie Pink is an aspiring literary agent. She and her brother had dreamed of becoming a team when they read a book by Agnes Wharton but he had died as a child. Now she continued the quest. Her boss sent her to retrieve a manuscript that they had been anticipating for over fifteen years. This would be the fulfillment of all her dreams. Unfortunately, when she meets up with her Agnes' dog takes off; Agnes yells to catch the dog, bring it to Washington, and then she could have the manuscript,then she takes off with Stephanie's purse, phone, and money. Stephanie finally finds the dog and starts out on the adventure of a lifetime.

Rhett Hastings is a retired CEO of a big cinema corporation. He has stepped down to care for his sister. He had wronged her several years ago and she had disowned him. Karen had a bad accident and has suffered a serious brain trauma. She has forgotten how he had hurt her but he was determined to care for her and change the mess he'd made of everything. He felt God was telling him to return to the orchard where they had grown up and live off the land. He had an ancient trailer for them to live in until the house was made livable. On his way to Oregon he bumps into a feisty little literary agent want-to-be. He rescues her,  a dog, and helps her transport the dog to Washington.

Both of these broken spirits find themselves on a humorous journey that will change their lives. God has a plan but they soon find out His plan isn't anything like their individual plans. His is much better! God has a plan for you too. It might not be like your plan but it will always be much better that you have ever dreamed. Give God control of your life and watch Him work.
