Until I Knew Myself Bentwood Book 1 eBook Tammy L Gray

Until I Knew Myself and The Bentwood Series it starts is the kind that is worth investing your time in. This first book introduces a group of friends with the focus being on one couple in particular, Ty and Journey. Their story is an absolutely beautiful one of two broken people being made whole so they can finally come together in a far richer relationship than they had before. Each one of them have hurts that they have to face and lies that they have to overcome.

Ty is so desperate for a sense of belonging that he can’t see that he already does belong. There are lies acting as a wall standing between him and the gifts God has for him. Lies that keep him from realizing how loved and wanted he really is, not only by an earthly family, but also by a heavenly Father. In the course of this book, the blinders finally lift and Ty can begin to see what gifts he’s been given and what love is already being poured out over him, helping him to really begin to see things as they really are.

Lies we believe so often taint so many areas of our lives and the perceptions we have of situations we deal with. But God is good, so good to weave our stories together and bring us to places of truth and healing. God knows the hurts we have, the lies we’ve believed even when we ourselves don’t see it, and He works tirelessly to bring them out into the open, to bring His children to places of light and hope and truth and healing.

God’s fingerprints are all over this story, bringing these people to where they are ready to hear the truth and can begin to heal, bringing good from bad—redeeming the bad and repurposing it for their good.

This is a wonderfully written story of coming home, of finding out you belonged all along, of coming out of darkness and bondage to lies and into His marvelous light. I believe this novel has the ability to speak to so many people and remind them of who they are because of God and His love for them and maybe open doors for them to see that He’s been there all along and that even now He is working their story out for good.

There’s so much to love about this book in addition to the beautiful picture it paints of an orphan who’s found his home. I love the tenderness of Ty’s and Journey’s relationship. I love seeing the changes in both both of them as they navigate the paths they are on. I loved watching Journey grow stronger and Ty find out he truly does belong. I also loved the love this group of friends has for each other, that even when they are struggling with life and with each other, there’s an underlying bond that holds them together and causes them to look out for each other. I am looking forward to the rest of the books in this series.

Until I Knew Myself Bentwood Book 1 eBook Tammy L Gray Reviews

It’s hard not to fall in love with this group of friends and their different characters. I can’t wait to for the books to come in this series! Her books are ones I love to share with my youth kids at church. She was amazing enough to send a signed set of the Windsor serious for my youth group, showing that she is just as amazing as her books. They love having them to read! Thanks Tammy L. Grey for the great books!

There is a satisfying happily-for-now and it's definitely set up to continue the series (and I'm IN!) There's a good and uplifting message to the story. The characters seem a bit more lax in their moral/spiritual convictions than I remember from other TL Gray books, though.
I love, love, loved this book. The characters were true to life, the plot engaging. I like the fact that Gray's books, this one included, address real life situations. The characters are not "story book" perfect, but face struggles and have flaws. This book had the perfect balance of presenting Christian principals without being "preachy". As a result, it appeals to a wide audience.
I can't wait for the next in this series!
“Until I Knew Myself” was not a light and airy story for me to read because it was too much like real life in so many families. But Praise God, it finished the way life does for Christian believers who endure to the end. I thank God for Christian writers who share their talents with those of us not talented in that area.
The writing, as always, is excellent. But, this is no light, fun read. This is a deep, sad, emotional, angsty, frustrated read. This one takes a lot out of you. Gray took a big risk with this one and manages to pull it off.

There are several loose ends that will compel you to read the rest of the series but if you’re one who likes neat little packages, this saga may not be your bag.
4.5

A captivating story about a group of five rich people, friends from childhood. Ty is one of them. Originally he was born into a poor family but was adopted into Beck’s wealthy one. This story explores what happens when Ty discovers secrets about his biological family. This is a story of love and secrets, brotherhood and romance, secrets and insecurity. The characters of all five of the friends are clearly drawn here (and Caroline) but the focus of this one is on Ty and Journey. This is a clean romance read.
Until I Knew Myself is a beautifully written study of flawed "empty and lost" people, making the choices people in the world make when trying to satisfy what they believe is their "greatest need." It deals with how the lies we believe about ourselves (and others) blind us. And, how true love may not come in the package we thought it would.

Like all of Tammy L. Gray's books there is romance full of tension, and deep internal conflict. Tammy has excellently set-up the secondary charactors' stories in the series. In particular I cannot wait to see how this all plays out. As an added bonus, there was a thread of suspense that had me tense throughout, but in a good way.

The strength in Tammy's writing shines through. All of the characters are richly drawn, and fully fleshed out. There is a full emersion experience when reading. There are also little treats like a third point of view character who ads depth to the novel.

I honestly don't want to say too much about the story lest I give anything away.
Ultimately the message of Until I Knew Myself is that many of our heartaches and pains can be avoided if we are honest with ourselves and see ourselves and our circumstances as they truly are.
