Daphne Sweeten is leaving Paris and moving to Dayton, OH to put her perfume creator skills to work. But first comes the wedding and that's impossible without a groom! Mark leaves her at the altar and leaves the keys to their house in Dayton with her father. Daphne feels she has to choice but to start over in Ohio. However, her sense of smell has disappeared and she can't have her new boss, Jeese finding out! Her whole life seems spinning out of control as Daphne goes through conflict after conflict and she wonders if God really is in control?
I was given a free copy to review from Thomas Nelson. Although I had read novels by Billerbeck before, this one didn't interest me like her other ones have in the past. The writing seemed "jumpy" and "scattered" to me. It was hard to get into the characters lives. The conversation between characters seemed abrupt or maybe sarcastic? Anyways, I did like how Daphne tried to show Christian love to co-workers. Plus, the believers she came in contact with when she moved to a new town, was exactly how Christians should be. She put others first and reached out to the hurting. It was a good read, but not one I would read again.
