Or is Ellen’s destiny waiting for her in Indiana?

My Thought 
Expect the unexpected in this wonderful written story by Wanda Brunstetter and Jean Brunstetter. I thought how in the world are they going to pull this off? Well, not only did Wanda and Jean write another fabulous story, but they sure got me on this latest release The Hawaiian Discovery. In this story you will find love, hope and forgiveness. A story can't get any better with when you place God in the center of it. Well done ladies. I promise you this, you when you close the book at the end you will be filled with such love and hope. I give the 5 star rating and recommend this book. 

I request this book and gave my honest review above.
