Focus on Love by Candee Fick (Review + Giveaway)

February 12, 2018 by Suzie Waltner 1 Comment


On Tour with Prism Book Tours

 

Focus On Love
(The Wardrobe Dinner Theater #2)
by Candee Fick
Inspirational Contemporary Romance
Paperback & ebook, 192 pages
February 13th 2018 by Bling! Romance

Free-spirited Elizabeth Foster turned her back on her father’s photography business to pursue musical theater, but a career on the stage remains second to a career behind the camera. The possibility of a one-show contract means she’s a few weeks from unemployment forcing her home, and her dreams of pursuing professional photography reemerge. With photography and theater opportunities unfolding before her, Elizabeth faces her biggest challenge yet—listening to her heart.

Meanwhile, sought-after photographer Ryan Callahan has put his career on hold to help his sister’s family, but the promise of a bigger assignment could lure him away so he can begin building a family of his own. With professional opportunities and personal obligations pulling at him, Ryan faces his toughest challenge—balancing family, relationships, and work.

If given the choice, what dreams would develop for Elizabeth and Ryan? And will they learn to trust each other enough to focus on love?

In My Opinion (Review)

This book does exactly what the title suggests. It focuses on love. God’s love, the love of family as wella s friends, God’s love, and a healthy helping of God’s love are all represented within its pages.

With the help of a new acquaintance, Liz Foster rediscovers her love for photography while also enjoying her life in the theater. As Ryan Callahan builds her confidence behind a camera, she helps him build a better business.

Liz’s family is not what she wishes it could be, and spending time with Ryan helps her build trust (in him, in God, and in family). The differences between Liz’s family and Ryan’s build a perfect contrast between legalistic Christians and those filled with grace and…you guessed it…love.

I was a bit disappointed when I reached the end of this book. Liz and Ryan are people I could have hung out with for another hundred pages. But I will take comfort in the hop of another excellent read from Candee Fick in the future.

September 2016 by Bling! Romance

 

Danielle Lefontaine, a fledgling actress raised to the lullaby of Broadway, searches for her long-lost brother and her place on the stage, but a jealous cast member and numerous fruitless leads threaten to drop the curtain on her dreams and shine a spotlight on her longing for a place to belong.

 

Meanwhile, Alex Sheridan is living his dream except for someone to share it with. When Dani dances into his life, he hopes he’s found the missing piece to his heart but fears the bright lights of the stage could steal her away. Will the rhythm of dancing feet usher in their deepest desires or leave them stranded in the wings?

    Thanks for hosting me as part of this blog tour! I’m glad that you fell in love with Liz and Ryan’s story enough to want to spend more time with them. I’ll have to keep that in mind as I plan future stories, because I just might need to bring readers back to The Wardrobe yet again to catch up with their favorite characters.
