The President’s Faith: Divine Intervention Series, Book Two

---

I usually tend toward the spy-novel type stories in my fiction selections, and thoroughly enjoyed those aspects of the story. Though I cannot rate it as the top most rivetting spy novel I've ever read, it certainly rates as one of the spy novels with the biggest heart. Carla Bruce spins a good yarn, and I hope to read more of her novels. Who has been through Divorce We need more books that reflect the positive outcomes following our faith can bring.

Lists with This Book. This book is not yet featured on Listopia. Dec 26, Sandra Jackson rated it really liked it Shelves: That day he lost his world and not even God would help. Thankfully, he is stopped when a young girl, Skyler, desperately needs his help or she could die.

After all, Luke is a doctor and he must do what he can to save her. Emma Cooper trusts no man, not after what her boyfriend did years before when he found out about her pregnancy. For thirteen years, Emma has raised Skyler with the help of her mother and her belief in God and angels. Divine Intervention is a charming story about love and loss, hope and faith, and two people who are brought together by the voice of an angel. I enjoyed this well-written story. The characters are likable and dialogue is realistic. It is somewhat fast paced with a few surprises.

If you enjoy clean romance and stories with angels then I recommend Divine Intervention.

Feb 24, Liam Robert Mullen rated it it was amazing. Strong characterisation propels this story along at a nice pace, and a touch of flamboyant grace adds a different layer to the story. Recommended as a good romance story. Jan 05, Karen Hulene Bartell rated it it was amazing. Luke and Emma meet under extraordinary circumstances and begin a whirlwind romance, but their attraction must overcome their previous losses, distrust, and grief that threaten to undermine them.

However, an elusive angel — or is it a dream or illusion? Iova skillfully interlaces these diverse elements into a refreshingly romantic read. Feb 27, Jon Zelig rated it liked it. Luke and Emma are damaged people. Both Luke and Emma seem to be getting counseling from angels, determined to save the two of them and to bring them together, and to perform other work which as a non-spoiler matter will not be revealed here.

This story takes place in British Columbia, in and around Vancouver. For the most part, the landscape is rendered in clear and interesting terms. But the language issues above were a bit of an obstacle. I admire work that addresses the blending of families in direct and credible and moving ways. Dec 31, Kevin McAllion rated it really liked it.

Romance isn't usually my cup of tea but Ica Iova's excellent writing and command of her story lifts this novel to far greater heights than the bodice-ripping yarns that kept my gran entertained for years. That it operates on a different plane is mainly down to the spiritual thread that flows through the book. Faith is a key theme but I found it refreshing that Iova deftly dealt with the issue instead of delivering her message with a sledgehammer, the chosen method of many Christian authors.

The Romance isn't usually my cup of tea but Ica Iova's excellent writing and command of her story lifts this novel to far greater heights than the bodice-ripping yarns that kept my gran entertained for years. The plot of Divine Intervention centres around the burgeoning relationship of Luke and Emma, two people who remain haunted by past relationships. In Luke's case, he is struggling to cope with the untimely death of his beloved wife from a brain aneurysm. As a doctor, he feels guilty about failing to spot any warning signs and takes solace in the bottle, a ruinous path that eventually leads him to the verge of suicide.

He's brought back from the brink of a cliff by the voice of a child and the intervention of a rattle snake that bites a teenage girl called Skyler, forcing him to ride to her rescue. Luke is given another reason to live back at the hospital when he meets Emma, the mother of the girl he helped to save, and feels romantic passions stir for the first time since the death of his wife. Emma also feels an instant attraction to the charming doctor but proceeds with the same caution as Luke due to her own troubled past.

Abandoned by Skyler's father when she refused to have an abortion, Emma is understandably sceptical about the merits of the opposite sex. This feeling is only increased when she allows Skyler's father to have regular contact with her, only for the disappointments and let downs to arrive with similar regularity. Despite this, Emma's relationship with Luke slowly builds throughout the book despite a few hiccups along the way, the most notable being a dramatic intervention from Skyler's father which leads to a riveting finale.

What makes Divine Intervention such an enjoyable read, though, is the intervention of the divine. Throughout the book, Luke has angelic visions, linked to the voice that prevented him from taking his own life. Iova skillfully weaves this into the plot before bringing everything together at the end, lifting what could have been a humdrum romance to something far more substantial.

Aug 05, Jasmin Quinn rated it really liked it Shelves: Divine Intervention is a well-developed story about loss and moving on. The main characters both experience profound loss. Through Skylar, he meets Emma, her mother, who struggles with loss as well, but still embraces her faith.

This is a clean romance that embraces the concept of guardian angels and spiritual intervention but does so subtly. Feb 28, J. Saman rated it really liked it. So, I'm going to be honest here. I have no idea about Christian literature so I was worried I'd be out of my depth I was a little. That said, it was a very sweet romance about two damaged, wounded people and how they come together through fate.

Luke is a suicidal widower and Emma is a scorned mother of a thirteen year old girl. The two of them meet when her daughter needs a doctor Luke and it all goes from there. Overall, I like the book.

On the flip side, Emma is a mother who had experienced nothing but disappointments with men. She ended up unable to trust any man who came into her life, preferring to be a queen without a king. This story is about The story begins with Luke, a doctor who lost his wife a year ago to brain aneurysm.

Overall, an interesting read. Feb 21, Deb McEwan rated it it was amazing. Ica Iova writes great books. You can shut out the real world and get lost in one of her stories for hours. The characters are always well developed and realistic and her plots keep me turning the pages. Divine Intervention was no exception and I enjoyed everything about it.

It also cove Ica Iova writes great books. It also covers many different aspects of love and the human condition. Enjoyable and highly recommended. Apr 25, A. Bavar rated it liked it. A sweet, easy read without much of a punch and very little fantasy. In Divine Intervention, Ms. Iova introduces us to Luke and Emma, two people whose lives have been touched by the inevitable challenges and pains of life. Very quickly, we are thrown into the darkness which engulfs Luke, his desperation at having lost the love of his life, and his desire to end it all until fate or an angel?

From that point forward, the story follows a predictable path without much excitem A sweet, easy read without much of a punch and very little fantasy. From that point forward, the story follows a predictable path without much excitement or tension. From the writing style, it is quite apparent that Ms. Iova is a seasoned author, however, the overwhelming amount of descriptive passages, especially internal thoughts and monologues, did nothing for the story.

Divine Intervention could be a successful romance novel with an interesting message, but for that to happen Ms. Iova needs to go back and tighten the narrative. There is way too much telling of who is feeling what and things that are happening instead of the characters actually showing us those emotions through dialogue and action. Furthermore, when there is tension build up, it's interrupted by long passages of internal thought, memories, etc. Is the story original? Divine Intervention follows a cookie cutter arc with little to no surprises. The only twist comes near the end of the book, but unfortunately, it's out of the blue and without any tension buildup.

Quite unexpectedly, something momentous happens, but because there was no set up or hint of it coming, the reader is cheated from feeling the tension build up - those nail biting moments before it happens. For that to happen, the reader needs to see snippets of Marcus's instability as the story moves towards its climax.

Are the characters well developed? Each character is well defined and unique. The fact that everything is very straightforward and bland, however, makes them forgettable. Does the story move at a good pace and keep you wanting more? Divine Intervention is a quick and easy read. The pace can improve a lot by condensing most of the telling and replacing it with dialogue and action.

Is the manuscript well edited?

Kuhusu mwandishi

It's borderline and will definitely improve a lot with another round of editing. There are parts of the story which flow well, but as a whole the manuscript is peppered with awkward sentences and word usage, confusing dialogue, character POV changes, telling versus showing, and unnecessary distractions. Apart from what I already mentioned, I would make the role of the angel Jack more prevalent. Although as a reader I understood that the voice in Luke's head is from an angel, it's not significant or present enough for me to care until the end of the book.

Do justice to the scene and show us why Luke and Emma are so right for each other. Telling us means nothing. Do you recommend this book? Yes, especially to those who enjoy a sweet and straightforward romance. Apr 15, Donna Collins rated it really liked it. This is a lovely little romance that I really enjoyed reading and, if I am honest, was a little sad about finishing.

I get turmoil and inner struggle.

I wo This is a lovely little romance that I really enjoyed reading and, if I am honest, was a little sad about finishing. I would have liked to have seen elements of this in Luke. The dialogue was great in places, but I wanted to see way more! For example, there was a lot of telling, internal thought, and a whole heap of background info dumped on me in places. This would have been so much better being drip-fed to me through chit-chat. Another issue was the misplaced grammar, as well as the long sentences. Overall though, I would recommend this story. Ica has a wonderful descriptive touch when not over-telling, and I would read her other work without any hesitation whatsoever.

Mar 04, Darrell Nelson rated it really liked it. This is a tough book for me to personally review. So let me say right off that I liked it and the romance was much better than most. Having said that, here is why it is tough to review. The whole book worked, mostly.
