Just when it seems Robin and Jeff might have a future, Susan Stinson, whose cruel taunting has plagued Robin since they met as young teens, decides Jeff should be hers, not Robin’s. Susan’s anger and jealousy escalate dangerously. Her vindictiveness threatens the foundation of Jeff and Robin’s young relationship.
Robin’s journey through the peaks and valleys of her life meanders along the twists and turns of new challenges. Is a relationship which began with both parties harboring secrets destined to survive? Can they move past their troubles and the obstacles in their path to find love and happiness together? When their pasts rear their ugly heads, Jeff and Robin must use their faith to remain strong and true. But will it be enough for them to embrace a life of love, trials, and blessings . . . together?
"Robin's Reward, a sweet romance with great characters, is as refreshing as a walk among flowers."
Author Rebecca H. Jamison, Sense & Sensibility: A Latter-Day Tale.

My Review: This is a sweet, cozy read. The story flowed like water over a riverbed. There were a few twists and turns, snags and valleys, but the ending was blissfully sweet. I liked the banter between the characters and the small community feel of Bonita Creek.
I feel like I only got to know the characters on a surface level. Because there were so many events that started and concluded throughout the story, I didn't feel like I could connect with either character very well. I liked them for the most part, but sometimes their words and actions frustrated me.
The message of the story was all about putting your trust and hope in God, leaning on Him in the tough times and the good times, and letting His love fill your life.
Overall, this was a sweet, cozy read with a happily ever after feel.
