Review: Restoring Their Family by Allie Pleiter

About the Book

A three-week retreat…

Could be life changing

Kate Hoyle came to Camp True North Springs to help her grieving children heal. She definitely didn’t come here to fall in love. But camp chef Seb Costa, working through a recovery of his own, soon cooks his way into the affections of Kate’s family—especially that of her troubled son. Would risking her heart when it’s barely mended be foolish? Or will they find the happiness they all deserve?

MY THOUGHTS

I absolutely loved this story. No surprise there, though. Allie Pleiter never fails to deliver a heartwarming and romantic tale full of wonderful characters and a gorgeous setting.

Camp True North Springs is a special place. It's a place for families who have experienced a traumatic loss to visit and hopefully heal from the tremendous amount of grief they're going through. Kate and her two kids, Kent and Kimmy, are there for a three-week stay to deal with the grief over the tragic killing of her husband.

I instantly fell for Seb. His care and concern towards Kimmy's severe food allergies really endeared him to me. I have quite a few severe allergies, so it was great to see someone taking them seriously. I also loved seeing his connection to Kent. You could really tell that he cared and wanted to help Kent through his grief. He became the perfect sounding board and support system for the grieving boy. I liked Kate a lot too. She was a strong woman who was dealing with a lot but was trying her absolute best for her kids.

This story deals with serious topics, such as grief and addiction, with grace and compassion. I can't recommend it highly enough!

I received an advanced copy of this book and voluntarily reviewed it. All thoughts and comments are my honest opinion.
