This novella features one of the infamous O’Connor couples, Mitch and Charity. Being a big Julie Lessman fan, I of course love this novella. However, I also love all of the characters in the O’Connor family and highly recommend every book in the series.   Topics we discuss: Age differences in couples The joy of children The never-ending weight battle.   We gave the following ratings to each of the story elements listed below.
