Mary Pat Johns makes a delightful debut with Countin’ On Jesse! The book’s cast of characters are so well-crafted that they quickly start to feel like friends, complete with realistic, emotional backstories that will tug at your heart and keep you turning the pages. I loved the funny and sweet banter between Jesse, Brenna, and the others, as well as Johns’ intriguing plot twists. She kept me guessing, and the ending had me on the edge of my seat! This story sparkles—you won’t want to miss it! – Laurel
