Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 01 3, 2014
A 4-Star rating for Chris Cox's MEANT TO BE. This straight forward story looks into the stress and tension that a couple goes through when faced with significant changes in life.  Life is not easy and this story captures a brief period within a couples life that will significantly impact their relationship. The story is well crafted and meets the objectives for a short novel.  If I were rating it on how well it met the author's objectives, I would have given it 5-stars within this category.I recommend this short novel to readers who enjoy an easy to read human interest story. MEANT TO BE can be read in one sitting and does stimulate thought.  It would also be a great Young Adult Novel to read and discuss within a group as the story is relevant to any type of relationship.  Great food for thought without judgment as there are no right and wrong answers, just choices.Personally, I liked the book, but I am not the target audience for this story as I prefer longer novels with a more complex storyline.  My rating is based on both my evaluation of the book for what it is and my enjoyment of the story,
