Finding Faith begins with a heartbroken Faith Connolly saying a tearful goodbye to her sisters, as her terrible relationship with her mother has driven her to leave home. She's also leaving behind her long-time boyfriend, John Bauers. Fast forward seven years. Faith has just come off a bad breakup with Dr. Brad Price, who works at the same hospital with Faith and her best friend, Grace. Faith and Grace have become friends with the local law enforcement and firefighters who frequent the ER to deliver accident victims or the latest casualties of bar-room brawls. Grace has a crush on Mike, one of the officers, and they convince Faith to come out to a bar with them one night. Mike wants to introduce her to 'Killer', the new firefighter. Enter John Bauers...I really liked this story...as in couldn't put it down, stayed up til 4 am to finish it. What can I say? I'm a sucker for a great second chance love story. While I'm sad that this book didn't address what happened between Faith and her sisters during those seven years, I know it will be in the next book. The only thing I wish this book had that it didn't give me was more backstory on the relationship between Faith and Brad. How did their relationship go from "I love you" to Faith being afraid of him and Brad making accusations and calling her a "druggie slut"? Right from the beginning, I WANTED to hate him, but I wanted to know WHY I hated him. Hopefully, that curiosity will also be put to rest in Keeping Faith.Ysabel Wilde delivered! Finding Faith gave me everything I look for in a good book: a HOT alpha hero who loves our heroine and doesn't play games, a heroine I love (even though I felt the need to smack her once or twice!) who doesn't whine about her circumstances and (with the support of said hero) stands up for herself, and a love that can endure for a lifetime. Hot sex with a yummy firefighter doesn't hurt either...
