Snowfall Serenade (Soul Connection #3) by Nikki Lynn Barrett – Review by Megan Watson

Snowfall Serenade (Soul Connection, #3)Snowfall Serenade by Nikki Lynn Barrett
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What an emotional rollercoaster!! I had to put the book down and cry for a moment while reading this one. A few parts of this book are pretty heart wrenching to be honest.
We are back to the lives of Scott and Zelda Henderson in the third book of the Soul Connection series; however, the other characters we have met along the way are thankfully still with us. Oh boy, do we all need friends like Scott and Zelda have!! Unlike “Sleeping Angel”, I feel like this book does need the first two books in order to fully get the happenings and emotions of the story. So many emotions and they are definitely well written!! 😭
In this book, the Henderson family is struck by tragedy when Zelda gets into a car accident while pregnant. Not only does she lose the baby, but the damage was so severe they had to do an emergency hysterectomy – forever taking away the opportunity for her and Scott to make a baby together. Zelda and Scott wade through their grief, another major accident, mental illnesses, and the ever present unrelenting ghosts all the while trying to remain strong for each other and their daughter Julianna. Deep in the trenches of trying to keep their family from falling apart, Scott is contacted by someone from his past and the news they bring will change the Henderson family forever.
Once again, Nikki Lynn Barrett touches on grief and mental illness in such a strong and authentic way. It’s tragically relatable sometimes and when she wrote “it cuts deep” – it really does! I don’t normally do this, but this book should come with a trigger warning for grieving mothers. If you aren’t ready to be reminded of your own loss, wait a little while to read this; but read it when you are strong enough. It really is a beautiful book.
