review 1: Another book by Gina that delves into the places that many Christian authors don't dare to travel, the area of marriage breakdown and infidelity. Written in the first person from the husbands point of view, it gave a different perspective to most book I read. His raw honest assessment of himself, was contrasted with his persona to the rest of the world. It is a book of grace, but shows the truth that forgiveness doesn't mean consequences of sin done't remain. I found this an authentic interesting story.
review 2: SummaryEric Yoshida has worked hard to provide a great living for his family – but at what cost? Over the years he distanced himself from the wife he meant to spend the rest of his life with, finally committing the ultimate betrayal of their love.All... more seems to be over until Kyra loses part of her memory in a car crash. Will Eric have a second chance at love? Or will Kyra remember his wrongdoing and ask him to leave forever?My ReviewGina Holmes delivers another heartfelt story in Dry as Rain. Although this one didn’t bring me to tears like Crossing Oceans did, I enjoyed reading Dry as Rain. It evoked a desire to give Eric a good talking to, yet it produced a yearning for Kyra to find forgiveness, as well.Tackling the issue of adultery, Gina didn’t water it down, make excuses for it, or glorify it. She told it like it is. Not every story has a happy ending, and I applaud her realistic look at a marriage gone wrong. There is no fluff in this novel, and that elevates her as a true storyteller in my eyes. She didn’t candy coat the circumstances surrounding her characters. They are incredibly believable, and reading the novel played like a movie in my mind.I highly recommend Gina Holmes’ novels. If you are looking for women’s fiction dealing with real life issues and an honest, believable approach to them, her books are for you. less
