Moonbow is an edge of your seat thrill ride that is sure to leave your head spinning and your heart full. If you love stories filled with suspense, mystery, and sweet romance, then you will love this story. The many themes that encompass this story will tug at your heart and set your mind on a path to uncovering harsh truths that need to be faced.Gisa is a woman who lives a simple, uncomplicated life. Even though her husband is dead, she is comforted with the fact that she carries his child. This thought propels her through each day and gives her the will to go on. However, all is not as it seems, and she quickly finds herself thrust into a deadly game of cat and mouse. To add to the madness, she is immediately offered help by a man that she barely knows. Not having anyone else that she can run to, she accepts his help, and in return she finds that her life will never be the same again.The issues dealt within this story are some of the hot button topics in society today – cloning, when life begins, evidence of our faith, etc. The author deals with these issues in a very straight-forward and honest way. She portrays the facts in light of the circumstances and then interjects honesty and emotion. Since we are creatures of emotion, that part of us cannot be cut off from the debate. The truth will seep into your heart and ultimately your mind clearing away the doubt and fear that threatens to strangle it.The characters pulled me into this journey with them, and I was helpful to refuse. I was in awe of the depth of their struggles and the heart that they showed in trying to overcome and survive. They held nothing back, and what they received in the end will astonish you as much as it did me. This is definitely one story that is full of surprises.Sheila Hollinghead is an author that you will want to keep your eye on. Her undeniable talent will take your breath away. She has a relaxed yet touching writing style that feels as natural as a refreshing breeze on a summer day. I loved this story, and I am looking forward to reading more from her.
