Great all round read

A beautiful story centred on a young woman called Taite, who finds herself pregnant, seemingly alone and very confused. Set in present day, but blended carefully with a tale of times long past, the author, with rare honesty confronts some of the hard issues that we currently face in our world today. Namely abortion and stem cell research. Very well written, the book holds your attention, and touches your heart as Taite works through deeply felt hurt, resentment and unforgiveness. It is both a modern day love story, (yes, in the end she does marry the young man she loves - the father of her child) and an encouraging tale about a painful, very personal journey which brings much needed healing and restoration. Throughout the book, the reader is reminded of the importance of life and family, as one regularly meets Taite's naini (grandmother - also a key figure in the book) and her mother. As the storyteller dives into Wales - centuries past, we learn lessons from relatives long ago about faith and love. I say "go out and buy this book". It is a good love story, with very `human' imperfect characters who struggle through some of the present day issues that all Christians need to address. Throughout the book, we see the Lord at work bringing His love, restoration and healing. Well done - Mrs Noble.

Yesterday , Today and Tomorrow

Loved how Diane Noble wove family history together with the stories of three generations of today's women, and seeing how God's hand works miracles yesterday, today and tomorrow. I join the ranks of those readers who could not put the book down until the last page!
