Review
4/5
Cici is a reverend and one night she starts having nightmares. She wants to believe that they are nightmares but when she hears her deceased sisters voice, she knows that she can't ignore them anymore. Then a baby appears on her porch. Her and Sam have to hurry and try and figure out what's going on before they are next.
So I am not usually fond of religious books and I was afraid this would be like that, but it wasn't. She might have been a reverend but she was still living her life how she wanted. The story moves at a good pace. I actually really liked Cici. Her and Sam obviously like each other so we will see with that. This is book 2 but I didnt read the first one and I didnt feel lost. I will probably check out more since I love strong female leads and Cici is a great one.
