Until I Met You by Tari Faris

Second in the Restoring Heritage series Until I Met You is about two brothers at odds with each other. Austin is considered to loyal brother who never gave his parents any trouble and is trying to save the family business. Nat is currently a pastor but in his youth sowed his wild oats causing his parents a great deal of money to bail him out. Austin has always been resentful of Nat. Austin develops a love interest with Libby, a librarian new to the town but is related to Luke from the previous book. Olivia is in love with Nat but he doesn't seem to want the relationship to progress. He lets his past get in the way. I didn't care for Austin too much. I thought he was too harsh and unforgiving but toward the end I knew that this story was a retelling of the prodigal son. In the biblical story of the prodigal son the son who stayed home and did everything right was resentful of the son who squandered all his money but came home and immediately got forgiveness from the father. This is exactly what happened in this story. I highly recommend this book. Thanks to the Early Reader program at LIbraryThing for allowing me to read and review this book
