Publication date 5/5/20THE BEST WE'VE BEEN by BETH K. VOGT is a Christian family drama that is the third and final novel in the Thatcher sisters series, but it can easily be read as a standalone.
This is Johanna, the oldest and most difficult sister's, story. Without friends except for her sister Jillian, with whom she does not always see eye to eye, no longer engaged to Beckett who cheated on her, and pregnant with his baby, her well ordered life falls apart.
Jillian and her husband Geoff have issues. When Jillian finds life too hard, and her new found faith not giving her the answers she wants, her first reaction is to run away.
Payton, whose twin sister Pepper died in an accident when ahe was sixteen, is happily married to Zach, who has been a believer for a while, whereas she has only recently made a commitment to the Lord.
There's a lot more to the story in which family dynamics, jealousy, forgiveness, marriage, abortion, single parenting and the inability to have a child, are issues that are dealt with. Through it all there is a strong message of hope and I really enjoyed the book.
I can highly recommend The Best We've Been to anyone who enjoys this genre.
