Book Description
"Seek not your destiny, for it is seeking you."

Just a week before their marriage, Christine's fiance calls off the wedding, leaving her heartbroken. With hopes of helping her through a difficult time, Christine's best friend Jessica enrolls them both on a humanitarian mission in Peru, to work at an orphanage called El Girasol -- The Sunflower.

It is while working at the orphanage that Christine meets Paul Cook, a successful and charismatic American doctor who has fled the States after one fatal day took away his career, his faith, and the woman he loved.

Unplanned events lead Paul and Christine into the jungle of the Amazon, where Christine must confront her deepest fears, and she, and Paul, must both learn to trust and love again.

A love story with a good plot. This book kept me interested the entire read. I would have done exactly what "Christine" did at the end of the book!

enlightening, adventurous, uplifting, inspiring  
This book has definitely inspired me in so many ways. In viewing the world with different eyes. In viewing love with a different heart. I especially love the inspiring excerptions from Paul Cook's diary before each chapter. I have actually used some of these in writing small notes to friends. They ask where they are from, and I gladly tell them. I am passing this novel to my sister, I have been bragging about it since I started, and she is eager to begin her adventure with these characters.
Thank you Paul & Christine!

Amazing!  
An easy and exciting read. Well worth having in your library. I will read it more than once. Love, responsibility, real emotion, selflessness and charity are all words I use to describe it. Great story line and is so mind blowing to think it is a true story!
