It's a gentle read that reminds one of one's faith and morals, with spice added. I like that Miss Thibodeaux makes her point on premarital sex and faith, without shoving it down the readers throat. She doesn't ignore the characters' sexual feelings, they are there, in titillating ways, without consummating. The author explores them with detail, depth and innocence, without losing the story line. Which this reader feels is about lost faith and regaining it in a contemporary way.</p>
<p style="margin:0px 0px 15px;padding:0px;border:0px;color:#333333;font-size:14px;line-height:20px;"><span style="font-family:Arial, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, sans-serif;">I would recommend this to anyone who wants a good book, with faith and a lot of zip. I would especially recommend Tempered Hearts to those teen readers on the verge of becoming adults. This is a perfect book to show love, without the physical act. I would suggest that the story be a bit longer and the scenic scenes given more detail to give the reader a complete view. ~ Reviewed by KL Frizzell for Timeless Tales Reviews posted @ </span><a>Amazon</a></p>
