Great review, I also read the sample and will be reading the book at a later time.
It sounds like a great inspirational story that many could relate to, weather it be blended families, marriage problems or being diagnosed with a fatal illness. Many pray to God to help them through tough times.

Sometimes we say to love someone is the best thing on life of every man and woman. Here we got a couple who is in love relationship, had two daughters but unfortunately things didn't work out because of issues from previous relationships their lot of quarrells, disagreements caused them to be in process of divorce. Pasty was having migraine problem when her job was given a stain on her. One day Roy went to Atlanta and got a call from Jimmy telling him Pasty was acting strange, he immediately went back to take care with Pasty. He never hesitate to take any chances of anything else but insisted took her to go to hospital for better treatment and I hope she will be fine because she will be able to do as doctors please because she got Roy support and the doctors will find the course of the problem.

"When No One Else Believed", by Ron Tripodo, is a faith-based book—an incredible work that portrays love, perseverance, and a relationship with God. The story follows Ronnie and Patsy, a devoted couple who face great challenges.

It is one of the few books that truly captured my attention. Besides being an excellent work, it contains no profanity or vulgar expressions and has very few errors. More than that, it presents an experience that makes us reflect on how this couple managed to overcome so many obstacles and, most importantly, on the role of God in their lives and in our own.

The author tells this story in such a captivating way that it made me reflect on how God truly never abandons us. He fulfills His promises—despite everything—at the right time. Even through trials, challenges, and difficulties, He never forsakes us. He is always there to give us strength, courage, to wipe away our tears, and to remind us that He is God.

One of the aspects that impacted me the most was Ronnie’s unwavering faith. At no point did he abandon his wife; on the contrary, he continued to love her and believe when no one else did. This made me reflect on many relationships today, where unfortunately, such deep love and perseverance are rare over the years.

I also loved seeing how united his family is, the fundamental role of the church in their journey, and the support of good friends. This, without a doubt, is due to the fact that they are such loving people, and because of that, they were never abandoned, no matter the difficulties they faced.

I give this book a top rating of 5 stars and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a beautiful romance filled with pure and lasting love, perseverance, faith, and the presence of God. I guarantee that, just like me, you will not be disappointed. I can only thank the author for this inspiring experience.

Thank you for your great review. I'm glad that you enjoyed the book. I had sampled it another time and I did enjoy it. I believe God does miracles, they just aren't always what we wish for. I'm so glad their love story came through and he discovered what God wanted him to do. It is on my list of books to read.

Roy’s strong belief in God’s promise, even while dealing with Patsy’s health struggles, brings a deep emotional touch to the story. It’s a powerful reminder to hold onto hope, no matter how hard things get. Definitely an intense and gripping read!
