But after being apart for ten years and believing that their marriage was not valid, when in reality it was, this changes everything. Although the storyline had great promise, I felt like the relationship between Hope and John was a bit forced. I did however enjoy the ending of the story. 3 stars A Brush with Love by Rachel Hauck At age twelve Ginger Winters was in a tragic fire leaving scars on her body.
