In Kate, Lisa Wingate has created a wonderful character. --New York Times bestselling author Luanne Rice Stop what you are doing and experience Tending Roses...A rich story of family and faith. --New York Times bestselling author Lynne Hinton Wingate's touching story of love and faith proves the old adage that we should take time to smell the roses and try to put our modern problems in perspective. --Booklist You can't put it down without...taking a good look at your own life and how misplaced priorities might have led to missed opportunities. Tending Roses is an excellent read for any season, a celebration of the power of love. --El Paso Times This novel's strength is its believable characters...Many readers will see themselves in Kate, who is so wrapped up in her own problems that she fails to see the worries of others. --American Profiles Weekly Magazine Get your tissues or handkerchief ready.
