ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: With You I Am
Series: Bryant Family #1
Author: Cleopatra Margot
Publisher: Faith to Love Publishing
Release Date: June 21, 2021
Genre: Contemporary Christian romance

Event coordinator Noelle Carter’s main priority is running the successful company her grandparents founded.

After all, they’re the ones who raised her, and she’s the one they entrusted their company to after their deaths. So when a letter comes across her desk inviting her to plan the Spring Fling in her grandmother’s hometown of Balsam Falls, Nebraska, she’s faced with a choice: stay and work on maintaining Carter, Inc.’s current success, or go and take a leap of faith–outside of her comfort zone.

For contractor Wynn Bryant, helping others is the key to life’s greatest blessings.

Over the past ten years, he and his brother have built homes for those who need them, creating a reputable name for themselves. Between that and helping out at the Serendipity Inn, his parents’ bed and breakfast, he’s put his other dreams on the back burner for now. Until the mayor ropes him into restoring The Gardens with a beautiful but guarded young CEO from Mississippi. Connected by a desire to help others, Wynn and Noelle dive into restoring a neglected piece of Balsam Falls’s history while learning from, and of, their own pasts. Together they uncover past secrets, current challenges, and help each other discover healing and forgiveness in ways neither imagined. Will their discoveries lead to love, or are some things better left as they are?

My Thoughts on With You I Am

Have you ever heard the saying Books are like family? It is my belief that that saying is very true.

I believe that Cleopatra Margot amplifies family in her books. She immerses you into her characters’ lives and makes you feel apart of the family. I loved that, and I know this is the first book in her new series, so I am excited to see where she will take the characters; especially if we will get to see more of Noelle and Wynn.

The faith elements in the book were wonderful and very much at the center of all the character’s lives, and I loved the little tidbits of wisdom that Cleopatra Margot displayed in the book. It was a wonderful combination.

Overall, I loved this sweet story, and I found the characters to be likeable and I genuinely liked being immersed into their lives (and the lives of those around them!). It was a little slow at the start, but by the end I was hooked. Fans of Becky Wade will enjoy this story! 4 out of 5 stars!
