The Scent of Rain
By: Kristin Billerbeck
The Scent of Rain by Kristin Billerbeck was a fun
story with a unique plot.
Daphne is a “Nose”. Her job is to sniff and create product
based on her sense of smell. At the beginning of the story, Daphne is about to
be married to the man of her dreams. However, when she is ready to walk down
the aisle, the groom is nowhere to be found, and there are no guests on the
groom’s side of the church. Daphne is devastated and with that devastation she
loses her sense of smell. She isn’t ready to move on, but she must. She has
quit her dream job in Paris because she and her fiancé were going to work
together in Dayton, Ohio, so this is where she heads, even though she doesn’t
have a sense of smell in order to do her job, create household products that
smell good.
Daphne meets her boss Jessie who instantly has an
attraction, and being one who enjoys reading girlie books, I knew something
would develop here.
Daphne soon realized that she was not going to get her sense
of smell back any time soon and simply had to face the idea of moving on with
life, leaving the past behind her. When she determined to do this, she found
that God’s mercies are new every morning, a theme in the book.
I really enjoyed reading this story, compliments from
