Book #43 of 2023. Something Old, Something New by Beverly Jenkins. 

Lily and Trent are finally getting married!  Unfortunately, Lily’s 9-year-old foster son wants to perform the wedding ceremony and does not seem to understand why no one sees him as a preacher…

Meanwhile, Reverend Paula Grant is being forced to close her church in Miami. Her church served as many homeless as they could and was being closed to make way for a more commercial development.  She relocates to Henry Adams to serve there. 

This was a solid story with a some very heart-warming revelations. 

3.5/5
