Love Lifted Me - A Songbird Novel, By Sara Evans with Rachel Hauck

 Synopsis: A fresh start is a gift. So is having a hand to hold.

Jade and Max share a deep love, though revelations from his past have recently shaken their marriage. And Jade is completely smitten with Max’s little son, Asa, whom she is now raising as her own. Their blended family brings her a joy she’s never known. But there is one more secret to be uncovered. One that will impact them all.

Max is doing his best to “man-up” and prove himself worthy of Jade’s devotion. As well as that of his young son. It seems like life in Whisper Hollow, Tennessee, will pick up where it left off until Max is faced with an unusual opportunity—leave his family’s law firm to coach high-school football in Texas.

Realizing a fresh start will bring healing to their marriage, Jade takes the leap of faith and moves with him and baby Asa, bidding good-bye to her beloved Blue Umbrella shop.
The new beginning in quaint Colby, Texas, is soon sullied when Max discovers the high-school program isn’t all it seemed. While Max struggles to rebuild a once glorious football team, Jade wrestles with news that could break Max’s heart . . . and change their lives forever.

Review: Jade and Max are a couple that are loved by all.  They are real people with real problems.  There is so much that goes on that they still find their strength in God and each other.  This is a book about life, people and relationships - real situations for real people.  They find strength to trust God and let Him lead them. It is a good reminder - one that is needed from time to time.  :)

I personally loved this book and the whole series.  I highly recommend this book.  It reminds you to trust him - in all things, at all times, thru all things.
