The scent of Rain

by Kristin Billerbeck

It's Daphne's wedding day. She has given up her dream job for love with the perfect man and to start the perfect life. The only problem, the groom didn't show up for the wedding. Left at the altar heartbroken embarks on a new journey to reevaluate her life. She heads across the to the new home and job miles away from family friends only to discover nothing is really what it had seemed to be. Daphne is a professional "nose" hired to turn around a failing business, but suddenly her sense of smell has disappeared. Feeling like a fraud on her new job, Daphne sets out to support the new boss, Jesse, to help make the company flourish and so he doesn't lose his job.
I really enjoyed Daphne's character and riding the ups and downs with her as she discovered the true reasons behind her loss of smell. As she makes these discoveries she grows personally and learns to make better choices without losing her own identity. Daphne encounters many people to help her through this time and she She discovers kindness and caring, how to accept help and friendship, and how to give to others for the right reasons. She also realizes that God can work all these situations together for good and to show her the real meaning of love.
