Guest Review from Joni Truex
Forgiven Again by Gina Holder is a great book. This story is suspense, mystery, romance, political thriller and inspirational fiction all rolled into one. The characters are well defined. The book includes the perfect amount of detail. I loved the plot twists and turns. This book does an excellent job of showing how the decisions we make effect our lives and the lives of those around us. Greed, thirst for power and ambition can take control of our lives. Only through our Lord’s forgiveness are we able to live free of guilt for our past sins. I would highly recommend this book. Definitely worth the read. I haven’t read the first book in this series “No Greater Love” but I just purchased it.
This book was provided through Celebrate Lit and the author for me to read. The opinions expressed are my own thoughts.

Forgiven Again: Extended Epilogue
The rag was warm and wet in her hand as Kylie wiped down the café countertop. Her shoes pinched her feet, and she was looking forward to kicking them off and plopping down on the couch with a movie and a leftover cinnamon roll.
As Kylie stretched across the flat surface, her hair fell into her face. She dropped onto her heels, then brushed the strand of hair out of her eyes. She turned to shake the cloth over the trashcan when the doorbell jingled behind her. Had she forgotten to switch off the open sign?
“I’m sorry. We’re closed,” she called over her shoulder. But instead of hearing the bell again, coins clunked down on her clean counter. She turned to face the late customer and cleared her throat. “Maybe you didn’t hear me. I said, we’re closed.”
The man about her own age nodded. His blond hair was knotted in dreadlocks and looked like it hadn’t been washed in months. His skin was tanned, and his clothes were well-worn. “I heard you. I just could really use a bottle of water.” His voice crackled, raspy and dry.
Compassion smote Kylie’s heart. It wouldn’t hurt to sell this guy one bottle of water before she sent him on his way. She turned to the fridge and opened the sticky door. The rush of cold air sent chills up her arms. “You look like you’ve been on the road awhile. Just passing through or hoping to stick around?”
“Hoping to stay awhile. I’m actually looking for someone.”
Kylie grabbed a cold water, then sat it on the counter. “That’ll be a dollar twenty-five.”
The man slid the coins toward her. Kylie took five quarters and dropped them into the cash register drawer. “Who are you looking for? Maybe I know them. This is a pretty small town.”
He twisted off the lid and poured the water down his throat. His Adam’s apple bobbed as he drank. When the bottle was empty, he sighed and wiped his arm across his lips. “Thank you. I appreciate you staying open for me.”
“Can I get you anything else?”
“No, thanks.”
Did he turn down her offer because he truly didn’t want anything else or he just couldn’t afford anything else? She glanced over at the boxed cinnamon roll waiting for her to take home. She grabbed it and slid in across the counter. “Hey. This was left over from this morning. I was just going to toss it out. You’re welcome to it.”
The young man’s eyes widened. His stomach audibly growled. His neck reddened. “Thank you. That is truly kind of you.” He stretched out his hand. “Christopher.”
Kylie smiled and took his hand. “Kylie. Nice to meet you.”
An odd look passed over the stranger’s face. “Kylie? I’m looking for a Kylie.”
She raised an eyebrow. “Really? I’m the only one in town that I know of.”
“Kylie Phillips?”
“Yes. That’s me.”
“My name is Christopher Phillips. I’m your brother.”
