Army officer Keith Foster has everything a man could possibly want—a successful career, two adorable sons, and a strong marriage. All that changes when he finds himself in the hospital recovering from a gunshot wound. His request to go home to his family is proving impossible. According to the doctor, the shooting not only shattered Keith’s body, but it caused him to forget the past seven years of his life. He’s divorced now, his little boys are teenagers, and his wife is dating another man! Keith vows to win back his family and discover the secret that tore them apart in the first place. Meanwhile, Jillian Foster has been trying to forget Keith and their turbulent past. After the shooting, she can’t help but feel obligated to help the father of her children recover his memory and restore his health. She’s just not sure what exactly that obligation entails. From the author of "A Mother’s Choice" and "Anna’s Courage" comes the second book in the Rose Island series. Full of hope, faith, and family, "Jillian’s Promise" is the heartwarming story about second chances and redemption.

Family, friends and faith is all you need
I just finished reading Jillian's Promise. I loved the story so much I didn't want it to end. Kristin Fischer is one of my favorite authors and her books are so easy to get lost in. The struggles of Keith, Jillian and their family are real but they tackle them with such grace. This story reminded me that a strong family, good friends and a little faith can get you through anything.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book has it all...Romance, faith, mystery and suspense.

2 days and have read 2 books by this author. Anna's Courage was wonderful and Jillian's Promise is just as good! Keith and Jillian were married and divorced for several years. Keith is shot, injured and wakes up from surgery with amnesia. He doesn't remember the divorce and thinks it is 7 years earlier. His sons are now 7 years older and his wife (ex-wife) is now dating someone and moved on with her life. How can he get her back? It is a good second chance romance with the warmth of family members introduced in Anna's Courage and add so much to the story. There is a second story within the book about Lyla and her part in Keith and Jillian divorcing and the death of Jillian's brother Marcus. It also is a good storyline. Faith plays a big part in the life of each of these characters. For some it is a renewed faith and very satisfying to see the changes they make in the way they live. Highly recommend this book!

Jillian's Promise is a wonderful follow up in the Rose Island series to Anna's Courage. The book draws you in quickly and has a familairty from the previous book that makes the reader feel right at home.

The book itself is a love story that is relateable and the character development is done beautifully. You will love getting to know Keith, Jillian, their family, and their real life struggles in this book.

I am definitely looking forward to the third book of this series. This is an easy, enjoyable read that you will have a hard time putting down!

A story where PTSD was quite well developed and detailed, which I throughly enjoyed.
However, there were some cliches in the story, that I wished were written in a different manner which took this from a four star to a three star.

I loved the writing style and Jillian was so real to me. I wanted to read the story and learn the end! I am enjoying the fact that there are more books written about married couples now than ever before.

Kristin Fischer has done it again! I finally got a chance to read Jillian's Promise tonight (I can never put a good book down) and I loved it. I can tell she weaves in things from her own experience and life in Texas (many of us prayed for the return of Blue Bell ice cream!). I love reading and wondering what tidbit from real life she'll throw in next. This is truly a story of 2nd chances, redemption & acceptance. I hope that we will get to know another character from the extended family portrayed in both Anna's Courage and Jillian's Promise soon!

This second book in the Rose Island series was every bit as good as the first. I appreciated the insight into the viewpoints from the main three characters. It clearly let me understand their struggles and perceptions through a difficult time period of their lives and how they handled adversity. The author truly seemed to realize the traumas of dealing with alcoholism, single parenthood, and raising children through the challenges of the teenage years and special needs. The Christian threads throughout the book and dependence on God in their circumstances was uplifting. I look forward to reading more by this author.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good characters.
Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2016

Some of the description and dialogue in this novel came across as trite. It was also overly preachy, which for some readers could be a turn off. However the characters and their problems were absolutely real. Fischer did a fantastic job showing how PTSD, alcoholism, frequent deployments, and moves affected the characters. The way Jill and Keith dealt with their problems was also realistic. I've seen real couples go through it first hand. I've seen the intermediate stages of how these things can slowly erode a marriage. So this story really hit home for me. It was refreshing to read a romance about a real couple with problems that didn't have easy solutions.

This is a very sweet yet very realistic book. It faces the problems of PTSD and alcoholism square on. I grew up in an alcoholic home where the alcoholic was never able to stay sober and this story depicts it accurately. It is also a love story and the difficulties that relationships can go through. All ends happily though. A very enjoyable read!
