Devon’s Choice

by Catherine Bennett

Life holds no surprises for Devon Murphy. Her life consists of keeping tabs on her aging Irish father, working part time at a coffee shop, and building her online graphics design business. Devon’s only tricky situation is a shallow relationship with the pampered and affluent Michael Turner, who sees her as just another woman to conquer.

Following his father’s death, Brandon’s only goal is to expand the family business and live life on his own terms. That is, until he walks into the coffee shop one snowy evening and meets the enchanting, red-haired barista behind the counter. But can Devon and Brandon’s attraction for each other be strong enough to help erase their deepest disappointments and renew their faith in God?

My Review

Devon’s Choice is a sweet, yet sad clean romance book. Devon is in a place in her life where she needs to make some decisions. Is the man she is dating right for her or should she move on from him? Is her career everything God wants for her? Does she even think God cares about her anymore? When Devon meets Brandon, some of the answers are more obvious than they had been.
I really liked the characters in this book. However, I wish that a major event that occurs in the book had been different. It made this too sad when it could have just been a sweet and clean romance to read. I did like the story other than that event, so I won’t elaborate since I don’t want to spoil what happens. I also wish the book would have been a little bit longer! It is a good story for those of you who don’t mind sadness in your romance books.

Excerpt

He looked up at the menu board.  “I’ll take a Grande.  Black, please.”
     
Chuckling, she thought about how impressed her dad would be with this guy.  He considered anyone who drank coffee black in the same category as his favorite actor, John Wayne.  She poured the coffee, and rang up his order.
    
“That’s two-dollars and fifty cents.”  He handed her his debit card, which she swiped.
    
He took the cup.  “Thanks.  Have a good one.”
    
“Yeah, you too.”
    
He walked over to one of the upholstered chairs and sank down into its well-used seat.  The shop owner had talked of replacing the pair of relics with some sturdy, leather ones.  Leather would flatter this guy much better than the faded paisley print on the old ones.  Devon glanced at him out of the corner of her eye.  Yes, leather was definitely his style, but not the biker stuff.  No, he’d look best in a rugged, mahogany leather jacket instead of the puffy, gray parka he wore. 

Praise for Devon’s Choice

5 Star Review on Amazon

“Devon’s Choice is an enjoyable Christian Romance. I was hooked from the first chapter. Devon is a strong, independent young woman who is not afraid to stand by her beliefs. The characters are very believable, and the story contains some surprise twists and turns. I would recommend this book to all readers who like Christian Romance. It is an excellent read.” ~ Review by Sharon B.

About Author Catherine Bennett

I grew up in Ohio where I currently live with my husband and our two rescue Labradors. Some of my favorite things include reading, shopping, pepperoni pizza, Hershey bars and hanging out with my two grown sons. I also love dogs; so going to the dog park is cheap entertainment for my husband and I! Growing up an only child, I had many imaginary friends. I believe this – and a love of books – fueled my desire to write. It was many years later that my dream of becoming a published author came true. I’m grateful to God for always keeping a story in my heart and hope you are blessed and entertained by my book.
