As Doctor Ariana Ross leaves her past behind and embraces her future, little does she know that the Outback holds more surprises than she could ever imagine.
Dr. Ross embarks on her new position at a medical practice in a quaint Outback country town, where her presence leaves an indelible impact on the lives of many.
Amidst the rugged beauty of the Outback, Ariana's path intertwines with that of Zane Lombardi, a charismatic and self-assured Italian orchard owner with a deep-rooted Christian faith.
Scarred by past experiences, Zane remains steadfast in his aversion to the charms of manipulative women, vowing never to be trapped again. However, as fate would have it, Ariana's arrival disrupts his convictions, igniting a fiery clash of personalities.
Yet, as Zane unravels the layers of misunderstanding, he realizes his initial misjudgment of this captivating young woman.
Adding an intriguing twist to Ariana's tale are the two celestial beings, Goodness and Mercy, who inexplicably accompany her on her journey.
These guardian angels discreetly watch over her, offering protection and guidance, occasionally revealing their presence to Ariana.
Ariana's unyielding faith in God, instilled in her since childhood, serves as a wellspring of strength, shaping her into the resilient and compassionate healer she has become.
Her innate desire to assist and heal those she encounters brings her immense joy and purpose.
Along her path of self-discovery, Ariana's relentless pursuit of truth fuels her curiosity about her hidden family secrets, raising the tantalizing question of whether she will one day uncover the buried mysteries of her lineage.

Immerse yourself in a tale of love, redemption, and spiritual awakening as Ariana Ross navigates the vast Australian Outback, touching lives, mending hearts, and unearthing her destiny.

I enjoyed reading this book very much. It is a wonderfully written Christian romance novel set in a small Australian country town. The author beautifully describes life in rural Australia. The main character Ariana is a religious young doctor with a kind heart who always tries to help others and finds comfort in trusting in her religion whenever she needs to make decisions. You are taken on a wonderful journey of this inspirational young woman who has a sad family history. After moving to a small county town for a fresh start, everything seems to be falling into place for Ariana, she is making lots of new friends, settling into her new surroundings and also meeting the love of her life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Message, Great Characters!
Reviewed in the United States on 5 March 2022

I loved the characters in this story. They were so relatable and down-to-earth. Ariana is close to her family and has a strong faith in Christ, even though she has a troubled past. I love how she prayed to God over each step she was about to take in her life. I enjoyed the addition of her encounter with her angels.

I was engaged in the story from the beginning and couldn't put it down. I loved the descriptions of the Australian countryside and the closeness of friends and family was inspiring.

The added mystery helped give the story another aspect and helped to build excitement. I didn't want it to end. The sweet romance between Airana and Zane helped moved the story along. Zane's affection and love for Ariana came through well.

Another great read from the author. I look forward to reading more. HIghly recommended.

Cherished Encounter: A Doctor Romance by Crystal Mary Lindsey is a well crafted romantic Christian fiction novel. And I would imagine that fans of this genre will love having a nibble this one! I have never read this author before but I must say I was very impressed.

The story had every element a good story should have. An exhilarating plot, attention to detail, but best of all fleshed out, well-written and well-rounded character development. There’s an abundance of well illustrated scenes that really make you feel like you are right there in the story, and that's something I really look for in a good book.

This entrancing and praiseworthy work had me immersed from the beginning. The story flows from scene to scene with ease, and the author shows exceptional skill when it comes to storytelling. There are twists and turns in this page turner that will take the reader on a fascinating journey!

It’s one of those stories that come along once in awhile that makes you want to read it non-stop until you get to the end. I’m giving nothing further away here. And this, I hope, will only add to the mystery and enjoyment for the reader!

I’ll certainly be looking forward to reading more from Crystal Mary Lindsey in the future! I would definitely recommend this book. I’d give this 6 stars if I could. Unfortunately, I can only give it a mere 5!

5.0 out of 5 stars Ozsome!
Reviewed in the United States on 30 March 2018

With each book I have read by Crystal Mary Lindsey, I learn a little more about why Ozzies are not bragging when they called their magnificent country the Land of Oz. Cherished encounter is certainly no exception. This book is a little more romantically-inclined than the others she has written that I have read, but it still has plenty of true Christianity very nicely blended in. Besides, our Heavenly Father is much more romantically-inclined than we can even start to naturally comprehend. Cherished Encounter clearly indicates this.

Even I hardly read romance, I just couldn't put the book down. I had to know how it would go on.
Will she find happiness?

Inspirational? You bet it was. It lifted me up at times, being a Christian myself, as I was reading the book, by Crystal Mary Lindsey.

Ariane, the main character of the story, sets up a new home in a small country town in Australia.
A wonderful journey begins for her.

A great book for everyone. Very well written, she is a great author.
