Blog Tour-Coming Home by Stacy Hawkins Adams

If forgiving your ex-husband was easy, everybody would do it.

Brent had cheated on Dayna and coldly said goodbye to her seven long years ago—dashing her hopes of having children or growing old with the love of her life.

Working hard to make herself successful as a hospital executive, Dayna has moved on, finding comfort in a new relationship with a faith-filled colleague, Warren.

But when Brent resurfaces on her doorstep at just the wrong time, Dayna’s heart threatens to come unglued. Why is Brent asking for forgiveness now? And why are he and his new wife, Tamara, interested in reconciliation with Dayna? The unbelievable answers begin to surface as Brent boldly asks Dayna to support him at the most crucial time of his life.

While Tamara’s heart brims with guilt, both women will discover what it means to reach beyond pain and baggage to love unconditionally, while leaving the consequences to God.

My Review:  I enjoyed reading this novel. it held my interest from beginning to end. The characters felt like neighbors instead of fictional ones. 
My reading pace was moderate.  A thought provoking read. 
Most like character: Dayna: a forgiven heart 
least like character: Tamara: befriend Dayna then ended up with Dayna's husband.
Theme: Forgiveness, sometimes a huge hard pill to stomach. In the novel Dayna has two people to forgive and then a secondary character becomes a target for forgiveness. 
Book cover: I adored the book cover however, the title left me wondering if the story line connection was Dayna being able to go back home or rekindling her faith. 
My book shelf: This book sits on my shelf as a Darn Great READ.
