Kate Darby's successful life is thrown into turmoil upon
receiving the call that her grandmother, Leona, has
suffered a stroke. Kate is good at her job in Los Angeles
at Sutton Advertising Boutique Ad Agency but clearly has to
put her grandmother first. Leona is her remaining
relative, still striving to keep the Clarion, a small local
newspaper in Meadows, California, solvent. Kate's plan is
to take a leave of absence to bring Leona home for
recovery. Heading over the treacherous mountainous terrain
in a torrential rainstorm, a condor in the middle of the
road causes her car to plummet part way down the
mountainside to her death.
Nick Sheridan has previously written successful
articles for California for Real Men, aka CFRM, which has
rendered him financially comfortable. Six months ago he
accepted God in his life after losing a newborn daughter,
and has vowed to change from sinner to a believer.
Therefore, he has decided not to make any major decisions
for at least a year, giving time to shift gears into his
new life. This includes women, sex, booze and everything
in his previous life. Rounding a curve he discovers Kate's
car hanging on the edge and manages to pull her to safety
seconds before the car plunges into the ravine at the
bottom, saving her life. Finding that Nick is helping out
at the newspaper in Leona's absence, the two of them work
together to right the wrongs and focus on Leona's
recovery. Falling deeply in love, Nick resolves to back
away in hopes that Kate will find God and they can plan a
life together. The story of the Condor #53 is retold
through Leona's journal as a gift to Kate in hopes she will
find her way and choose the life she deserves. Temptation
for a high prestigious position in advertising causes Kate
to reflect on her true happiness and real reason for
considering the job rather than to choose her life with
Nick. Only understanding God will give her the ultimate
solution for a fulfilling and faithful life.
Finding true and everlasting faith is a difficult
decision for most people when it means denying personal
wants. The journal follows the life of the condor, an
extinct bird that mates for life. Through all the soul
searching and reminiscing, realization eventually surfaces
that we all need understanding for our faith and love in
God who is the One that loves and guides us through life.
This read is a very heart-warming and fulfilling tale of
commitment to our faith and those we love. UNTIL I FOUND
YOU left me
with a very wonderful and complete feeling. Victoria Bylin
has created a really great story of strength and has a
truly gifted way of relaying the essence to the reader.
Finding each other was only the beginning . . .
When Kate Darby swerves off a mountain road to avoid hitting
a California condor, she ends up trapped in her car,
teetering on the edge of a cliff. Terrified, she breathes a
prayer that changes her life.
It's Nick Sheridan who comes to Kate's rescue. Nick is
handsome and confident, and he seems to develop a habit of
rescuing her, but Kate is in town only until her grandmother
recuperates from a stroke. She's not planning to get
involved with one of the locals.
Nick is a reformed veteran of life in the fast lane, a new
Christian, and a travel writer. When he sees a car dangling
on the edge of a cliff, the daredevil in him jumps into
action. He doesn't expect to be swept off his feet by the
car's occupant. He's made a vow--no dating for a year--but
keeping that vow is going to be a lot more difficult now
that he's met Kate Darby. . . .
