The Promise of Rayne

By: Nicole Deese

Narrated by: Kathleen McInerney

Rayne Shelby has spent her entire life trying to earn the approval of her high-powered family, with the hope of one day managing her late grandfather's prestigious Idaho lodge. But when she makes a mistake that puts her future in jeopardy, she faces an impossible choice: defy her family or deny her dream. The only way to fix the mess she's created is to enlist the help of her neighbor, Levi, the apprentice of her family's greatest enemy. And if Rayne gets caught crossing the divided property lines, the consequences will be irreparable.

Levi Harding has never forgotten the August night he shared with Rayne when they were teens - or the way she later rejected him. Despite his warring instincts, he can't ignore her plea for help or the spark that's ignited between them. But now, as wildfires bear down on their town and family secrets are revealed, their newfound alliance might just go up in smoke.

Beautiful Story

I appreciate how all the characters had realistic flaws, enough that I wanted to roll my eyes at them on several occasions, and yet there was so much hope as individuals learned and grew as they experienced mercy and love.

Family

Love isn’t measured by what we gain it’s measured by what we give away. Family has many looks but as God loves us is what matters.

Wonderful story, just stick with it.

great story, just got a little bogged down in the middle, but so worth hanging in there for the end.

Good story

Hidden secrets kept from family unfold in this book. Was a good book, one of my favorite narrators, didn't keep me on the edge of my chair, but overall, good story. Don't regret purchase.

Rayne or rain?

The main characters of this book may be Rayne and Levi but I think the main character was Ford. I like how even though everything Ford went through he did not let his circumstances or other people change who he is. I also liked how the phrase 'pray for rain' was used a lot. Since I listened to this book and not read, I have to wonder which rain/Rayne was the author referring to... The narrator did a good job with the different voices.
