Finding Forgiveness
Posted December 28, 2009
By BlackLeopard,
Brad Cutler is a driven and professional young man with a busy lifestyle. He works in a New York City office for a company called Kotton Kids Clothing (expensive organic cotton clothing for babies and children).
Brad’s boss and future father in-law asks him to come up with a proper slogan for Kotton Kids Clothing. Brad becomes discouraged and finds difficulty in finding the right words to use. For a brief moment during work, Brad stands still and focuses on the baby photos that are in his office. He can’t help but think about Holden Beach…
From here on, Brad Cutler can’t stay focused on the slogan he was working on or the wedding that will soon come. Brad must take care of a certain thing before he gets married to the love of his life, Laura. He tells his fiance, Laura, that he must go back to Holden Beach to see his old girlfriend. He has to straighten things out with Emma Landon.
Laura is distraught that Brad is leaving so soon and she can’t help but think that Brad might fall in love with Emma. Brad can’t stay even though Laura is insecure about his going. He has to see Emma Landon again. He has to talk to Emma and tell her something that he should have a long time ago… He has to say sorry…
My thoughts on Shades of Blue:
I don’t want to reveal why Brad Cutler needs to say sorry to Emma…though you might already know why. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and it was the first time I had read a Karen Kingsbury book. I’m a complete fan now after reading Shades of Blue and I’ll be reading more of her books.
This story is about forgiving people and receiving forgiveness from people and God. Although there is also another important subject to this story, I’m not going to mention it. I want to keep that a surprise for you…
