While Brian is at Officer Candidate School for the military, he’s forced to deal with a skeleton in his closet. He hopes his rushed marriage to Indigo will help to cure him of the dangerous desire with which he continues to struggle.
Meanwhile, Indigo’s younger sister struggles with her own issues as she tries to pursue her dream career in modeling.
This book deals with some tough issues that you don’t see often in Christian fiction: homosexuality, bulimia, and vision medical issues.
I found the book intriguing and I would be interested in reading more books in the Jubilant Series.
I reviewed the first book of this series here.
