This was the first book that I have read by this author, but won't be the last. I really enjoyed Mishaps off the Mainland. The writing was good, the characters were well-developed and the story moved quickly. Sarcasm is in my blood and the witty banter between Mel and Zeke is hilarious. Melody and Zeke meet when Mel goes to Nana's house to confess her beloved dog has gotten loose. While they don't exactly hit it off, they do become friends as they spend each evening looking for the dog. There are lots of heart to heart conversations, and this is a wonderful faith-filled story of learning to be still and wait for God.
I would recommend this book to anyone who loves christian romance stories with witty dialogue. Thank you to Celebrate Lit for the opportunity to read and review this book. All opinions are my own.

Dogs + Faith = An Inspiring book!

I have read all the books in the Independence Island series so far and have been enchanted by their realistic approaches to life and the way they each uniquely emphasize our need for a Savior. Tabitha Bouldin is a new to me author that I so glad to have found through this series. I LOVED the way she showed faith through her characters, the struggles of any small business, and her commitment to showing the realities of life. Melody and Zeke played so well off each other and were a great combination. Mishaps off the Mainland is one of my favorite stories so far in the Independence Island series and I am so looking forward to reading more books by Tabitha Bouldin (can you say going on a binge read?)

I give this book 5 out of 5 stars for the strong faith aspects, the relatable characters, and for leaving me thinking even after I am done with the book.
