Bittersweet Surrender – Diann Hunt {Book Review}






Book Description from Thomas Nelson
Carly Westlake is living the dream. She spends her days at a spa (okay, so she owns the place), she's dating a hunk, and she's surrounded by chocolate—milk chocolate, her favorite—that she uses for the chocolate facials that made her spa famous.
But when long buried secrets threaten Carley's business and her friendship with business-partner Tom, she fights like crazy to keep the dream—and the illusions—afloat.
It takes a miracle of grace to get Carley to finally make that bittersweet surrender to love and real life.


My Review

I actually finished this book a few months ago but haven't found the will to write about it yet. As I've said before, I love to read, so I dove in to this book as best I could, but I left feeling like the message was that you must be thin, fit and eat very well in order to find love and happiness. Yes, there are other issues, but this one was evident in every turn of the page. The highlights of the book are Jake's daughter and Carly's stepmom, unique characters, good life perspectives, and the best parts of the book. The rest left me wanting more...

I give it 3 stars.
