I am not one to read non-fiction, inspirational stories. That being said, I couldn’t be more grateful that Tara R. Alemany reached out to me to offer a copy of her book, “The Best is Yet to Come.”

Alemany ‘s story is about a relationship that she forged with a man when she had given up on dating all together, something that I can relate to, and how she manages to struggle through the pain and isolation she felt upon his death.

I wondered, before beginning to read this, if Alemany’s Christian based back ground would put me off. Instead, I found comfort in her ability to turn to her God and her faith to find peace in an otherwise bleak situation. And I found comfort in the fact that simple prayer paved the pathway to clear obstacles that blocked her from making bold choices that lead her on a path to comfort for both herself and for others effected by the death of someone that she loved.

On this rare occasion, for me, where a Christian based non-fiction book is concerned, I would not hesitate to recommend this book for anyone who has become complacent with their current lot in life. You never know where love will find you. Nor would I hesitate to recommend this book to anyone who has experienced the death of a loved one as Ms. Alemany’s journey expresses, very poignantly, how we accept loss and survive the pain of our grief.

Without hesitation, I give this book a very strong four and a half stars and wish Ms. Alemany all the best on her journey. ( )
