I didn't realize when I picked it up from the library, but A Time to Surrender is actually the third book in the Safe Harbor series by Sally John and Gary Smalley. I really enjoyed the book and will be keeping on eye out for the other two.
This is my first book by Sally John, but I have read other books by Gary Smalley, both ones he wrote on his own and ones he co-authored. The fact that he co-authored this book was part of the draw for me, but I will also be looking for more books by Sally John in the future. I enjoyed the writing style, as well as the content.
This book spoke to me on so many levels. Characters are struggling with their relationships with one another and with God. I could relate to many of the struggles. I learned a lot from their struggles. One interesting point of view is the military wife that is not sure how she feels about being a military wife. While I can't relate in any way to being a military wive, I do have friends that are military wives and I had never thought before about some of the struggles they way face.
I would definitely recommend this book to anyone.
