Hello and welcome to my blog of wonders. Here you can
find book reviews of books of all origins and genres. I will always be honest
when it comes to reviewing any book. I try and keep my blog up to date and
filled with truthful and fun reviews. So, let's get started, shall we?
This was sent for me by the author herself, Carmen Ashe
so thank you very much for sending this my way. Regardless if its sent for
review, I have always been truthful on whether I liked it, loved it, disliked
it, or hated it. The main reason I stay truthful is for myself and what blog
would I be if I lied about every book I read and reviewed? I don’t mean to hurt
anyone’s feelings but this is my opinion and I am entitled to my own opinions.
For the books, I have not enjoyed I would still recommend reading only because
it may be a totally different experience for you. So, with that let’s get into
the review.
I was so thankful for receiving this beauty. I was drawn into the story
line and I’m so happy that I could read and review this for the author. Before I
go into my thoughts on the book here is what the story is about.
Carmen has always been a fighter. She has fought to escape the control
of her dominating father, carried the dark secret of an abusive family member,
and been beaten by a boyfriend who would rather see her dead than let her go.
Her mother can’t protect her, and Carmen knows that she is the only one who can
save herself.
All that changes when she meets Tony. From their first conversation,
they know that they’ve found something special in one another. But when a
confrontation with a family friend sends Tony to prison, Carmen is forced to
make a difficult choice. Should she give up the love of her life, or risk
everything to save her marriage?
Through one tragedy after another, Carmen is forced to rely on her own
inner strength to keep herself and her family from falling apart forever.
It wasn’t instant love but
gradual. I found myself becoming emotionally invested with Carmen and Tony,
mostly Carmen. She’s an independent Hispanic woman with a purpose. She doesn’t have
the greatest childhood but that doesn’t stop her from being who she is today. Through
everything she still manages to hold her head up high.
I even teared up towards the
end because I can't imagine going through what carmen has. I feel that this
book deserves the 5-star rating and nothing less. “I Have A Purpose is touching, real, and hopeful. Everyone has potential
to live their life to the fullest and be the best they could be. Carmen is a
perfect example of someone who took their life by the horn and guided herself
and her family to a life of success and love.
Thank you again Carmen Ashe for
sending your book my way. I really enjoyed reading and following your journey. I
will be passing your book along to friends so everyone could experience the
ride.
