"Hannah Claire’s Wilderness" by Caryl McAdoo is the second book in the "The Revivalist Trilogy".

This is a love story and it does have plenty of kisses and passion in the pages, but it is written in a way that doesn't cause the readers to be embarrassed or ashamed.

In this story promises and visions comes true but not in the way that was imagined.

This book shows that God really wants us to trust Him in all things. I know this book is fiction but I really felt God was talking to me personally because it was a story of overcoming fear. I love the fact that God can and does use fiction to change a person's perspective and makes them a better follower of the Lord's way. Although Hannah's fear isn't the same as mine, this story showed me that God just wants me and you to surrender to Him in everything.

This story is also about forgiving and receiving second chances.

Thank you Caryl McAdoo for a great book that if a reader allows it words to penetrate deep inside their souls will change their outlook on what it means to totally surrender all to Jesus and be lead by Him.

I was given a complimentary copy by the author and Celebrate Lit. These opinions are my own.

About the Author

Caryl McAdoo prays her story brings God glory which is what she lives to do. Her award-winning, best-selling novels enjoy a lion’s share of 5-Star ratings from Christian readers around the world. With forty titles, it’s obvious she loves writing almost as much as singing the new songs the Lord gives her—listen to a few at YouTube. She and high school sweetheart Ron celebrated fifty years of marriage June 22, 2018 and share four children and eighteen grandsugars. The McAdoos live in the woods south of Clarksville, seat of Red River County in far Northeast Texas, waiting expectantly for God to open the next door.

Guest Post from Caryl

Have you ever thought you heard from God, and acted on that in obedience—oft at great sacrifice—only to doubt that you heard Him at all when things don’t go as you’d planned? Actually, everything almost goes just the opposite, and your world is turned upside down. Did you really hear Him? That’s what my heroine Hannah Claire faces, when a two-year stint looks like it’s turning into a lifetime commitment. Though I’ve never been abroad to the mission field, I’ve faced much the same thing as Hannah, believing I heard Him and then nothing happening as expected! Personally, I’ve been waiting over thirty years, but have found great peace in that waiting and trusting God—knowing that He is on the throne and in control. I will never doubt that the vision He’s given, the call He’s placed on mine and Ron’s lives WILL come to pass, just as it did for Abraham. Hannah doesn’t have to wait that long, but her experience takes her to the depths of fear and depression before she comes to know her Heavenly Father is altogether trustworthy. The Shepherd walks her through the valley of the shadow of death and makes her to lie down in green pastures. He stills the raging waters and leads her beside them. Book three, King David’s Tabernacle, coming sometime in 2020, will bring the reward and give you glory bumps every step of the way as God makes Himself known in a mighty way, but first . . . there’s the refining. Gold is passed through the fire seven times to be purified. Silver as well, until the smith can see his reflection. Followers of Christ are all being made into the image of God’s Beloved Son, and we can rest in the fact that He who began that good work in us at salvation will be faithful to complete it until His coming again. I pray you will enjoy your journey through Hannah Claire’s Wilderness.
