Review: Christian based romance
Rating: 3 out of 5

This is a Christian based romance whose overall tone was somewhat reminiscent of the television show Seventh Heaven.Personally, I found that all of the characters pushed too hard on Emma to conform to what they wanted.  That part of the plot became a serious concern to me as I watched her friends and family try and shove her into situations she wasn't comfortable with or force her to work hard to heal old wounds with others that weren't ready to reach out themselves and then blame her when things didn't get fixed properly.There was some predictability to the story and there were times when I honestly thought that no one in their right mind would say or do the things some of the characters were saying or doing to others, but overall I enjoyed reading Broken Vessels.  I can see how it would help with healing from loss or struggle or with finding a new place in the world, but I think it is best to accept it for the love story it is and move on from there.Note: Though this book was a free gift from the author, the content of my review was in no way influenced by the gifting. The book speaks for itself and my review would have been worded just this way even if I'd gone out and bought it. I also give bonus points for Text To Speech enabling on Kindle format.... but that also wasn't a factor in the above review
