The Broken Road by Shannon Guymon


Synopsis from Goodreads.com: When Allison moves her two younger siblings back to Alpine, Utah, she's hoping they can overcome their father's dark legacy. Reuniting all your favorite characters from Makeover and Taking Chances, this inspirational tale of love and forgiveness will remind you that a family consists of the people who love you most and that nothing in the past can dim the brightness of your future.
Christina's Review: Shannon Guymon is one of my favorite authors in the LDS fiction genre. I love that her characters from previous stories appear in her new books. . . so it would be best to read them in order or it will ruin her other books. I love how she picks different real life situations to write about.
The characters are likeable and interesting. They have their conflicts and personal issues. Allison has to deal with people who blame her for her father's mistakes and who use her past against her. She has to rise above that to take care of her two siblings.
I hope that Shannon Guymon has more in store for us!
