Narration During Books Over the Waters
All Valerie Austin has ever wanted is to be married and have a dozen children. At age 30, she finally falls in love, only to be left--practically at the altar--by her groom-to-be. Dejected, Valerie decides to go on a short-term mission trip to a Haitian orphanage. In Haiti, she meets another American, Max Jordan, a 47-year-old doctor with a tragic past. As Valerie falls in love with the Haitian people--and especially the children in the orphanage--she keeps running into Max. They develop a warm friendship, which ultimately turns romantic. But Valerie feels more and more called to remain in Haiti while Max plans to return to the States...but what is God's plan for them?

Can't put it downI chose 5 stars because, for me, I could not give it anything less. A wonderful book of faith. Valerie and Max were super. It's hard for me to say much as I don't want to give anything away -please read and enjoy yourself. I love Deborah Randy books! From me a big Thank You for this one!
Valerie went on a two week mission to Haiti after her engagement was called off by her fiance. She meets Max, who is cynical about his son's choice to serve there when Max had paid for an extended medical education that could have been financially rewarding. With news of his son's death from overwork and exposure to an epidemic, Max visits Haiti to see his son's end-of-life circumstances. His attitude changed from contempt to acceptance,, and eventually to a love for the impoverished people.
Great book didn't want to put it down. Was very interesting about the orphanages and the Haitian people. Also I enjoyed the romance in this because it was subtle at built to a lasting relationship instead of one that starts at all giggles. Also let you see how our relationship can come together even though you don't think it might
Valerie with life changes, a wedding that didnt take place, and a trip to Haiti, an orphanage children. Seeking plans and purpose for her life. Meeting Max famous, wealth and estrange from his son. Finding out what was the purpose of his son being here. Together they search to find answers Another good book by the author.
Deborah wrote another excellent story. This one was a bit more "normal" in that it didn't deal with such difficult/taboo issues as some of her other stories, yet she once again dealt with a difficult issue--losing a child--in an interesting, gentle, and realistic way. I liked the way she brought in other issues, as well. Her books have never disappointed, and I will continue to read all of them that I can get my hands on.
Over the WatersWhat a refreshing story. Two people Max with a goal to figure things out about his son's life choice and Valerie a young woman dealing with a broken heart find answers for their lives by a visit to an orphanage in HaIti. Observing lives so opposite of theirs and finally understanding why God led them to this place. God speaking into their lives in such a way that each one finds the reason God led them to this place. Nothing is beyond God's way of opening doors to Himself and
