A little too distressing

What a struggle!

What did you like best about this story?

The end when the wicked man dies.

What about Linda Stephens’s performance did you like?

Not the best narration in my opinion

Any additional comments?

This book was difficult for me because of the wickedness of the lead character and his abuse of everyone around him. I read or listen to books to find peace, hope, encouragement - this book was depressing to me. Reality is reality but I want a little reality with lots of happy overcoming. The best part of the book was the very brief ending to such a horrible trial. I was glad for the scriptural encouragement to prayerfully endure even people like Bradley Houston. I almost didn't listen to the book because I was not interested in someone learning to deal with an unloving abusive husband. I am hoping book two and three will be more like the other Tracie Peterson books I have read.

Wonderful

A wonderful start to a new series. The narrator was excellent on to the next

Great book!
