Tragedy can lead you back home, love can keep you there. What leads Danielle home is her sister. What could possibly get her to stay? A little bit of love with an old crush and his ever so adoring daughter. Random Acts pulls two people together with a past and dares them not to go with the urge to just give in.Danielle's job in a big city keeps her busy. Enough not to come home and visit more with her sister and grandmother. Isn't that the way in many small town stories? There's always something that makes someone run, and it's one thing that brings them back and plays with their emotions about whether or not to stay. Danielle won't abandon her sister, though, who needs some support and protection after an accident.Patrick is a great hero, and I fell in love with his daughter, Ava, immediately. The two have been through so much loss and heartache, and Ava takes a shine to Danielle from the get go. Patrick can't stay away from her either, and it has nothing to do with investigating her sister's situation.Built with elements of suspense, emotion, a little bit of inspiration, and characters that are well worth reading about, Ms. Stone creates a heartwarming and intriguing tale in Random Acts. The pacing flows great, there's not a moment that's dull, and I was left guessing until the very end. With a great cast of characters from the leading couple to the secondary, I enjoyed the feeling of being part of a family that though they'd suffered a loss, had a chance to find love again despite the odds. And through a little faith and love, Danielle and Patrick begin to see a new light at the end of the tunnel.Overall, I enjoyed this book very much. It's touching, engaging and well written. Readers can come away at the end of this story feeling satisfied. If you enjoy a romantic suspense story with some inspirational elements, come visit these wonderful characters in Random Acts.Originally posted at LAS Romance Reviews
