By Kelly Bridgewater
Allison Moore is making it. Barely. The Seattle area architecture firm she started with her best friend is struggling, but at least they’re free from the games played by the corporate world. She’s gotten over her divorce. And while her dad’s recent passing is tough, their relationship had never been easy.
Then the bomb drops. Her dad had a secret life and left her mom in massive debt.
As Allison scrambles to help her mom find a way out, she’s given a journal, anonymously, during a visit to her favorite coffee shop. As the pressure to rescue her mom mounts, Allison pours her fears and heartache into the journal.
But then the unexplainable happens. The words in the journal, her words, begin to disappear. And new ones fill the empty spaces— words that force her to look at everything she knows about herself in a new light.
Ignoring those words could cost her everything . . . . but so could embracing them.

My Thoughts:
James L. Rubart creates mind-bending stories of faith and
takes the ideas to a new level. Rubart takes what appears to be a simple story
on the surface and creates something much, much deeper to the characters. All,
at least the ones I have read, of the characters transform completely by the
end of the novel. With Pages of Her Life,
Allison is no exception. The plot dug deep and had me questioning why Allison
kept working for Dexter, who I couldn't stand from the moment I met him. He was
a very unlikely villain. I enjoyed the story, and I couldn't wait to see how
the ending happened. As for the element with the money that was due by their
mother, I believe, Allison, Parker, and her mother should have hired a lawyer
and taken them to court. There is no way I would have paid that money. Unless
the contract proved them liable, not just their deceased father, the money
people had no leg to stand on. As a bonus, there is a couple of characters who
appear from Rubart's previous novels. What a nice surprise. Overall, James L.
Rubart's Pages of Her Life showed how
trusting in yourself and God can change your perspective on life. I enjoyed
this novel. I anxiously await what Rubart creates next.
I received a complimentary copy of Pages of Her Life by James L. Rubart from Thomas Nelson Publishing,
but the opinions stated are all my own.
