MP3 CD Format

“Dr. Botox"" to the bored rich women of Chicago, plastic surgeon Max Jordan is shocked by his son Joshua's decision to focus his medical degree and talent on Haitian orphans. Embittered by Joshua's sudden death, Max searches for resolution in the place his son called home--an orphanage outside of Port au Prince.

The selflessness of Joshua's coworkers stuns Max. He is particularly taken with American volunteer Valerie Austin, whose dream of a tropical honeymoon has been crushed, replaced by a stint working in the impoverished orphanage. But Valerie's view of Joshua's sacrifice--and her own--challenges everything Max knows. Have the doors to his gilded cage finally opened to a freedom he's never known?

Great story

Reviewed in Canada on 26 January 2020

The author enlightens us with the awareness of how Christians can turn others off by being overzealous when others are not ready to hear the message. Also touches upon how we can run ahead of God's plan for us and almost miss out on His best for us. Got an accurate picture of the country of Haiti and conditions. I enjoyed this book

One of the best books I've read

This compelling story kept my interest to the end. The spiritual content was encouraging, the romantic aspect was not sappy and fake, the circumstances bringing the two main characters together was totally believable, and the setting was well portrayed. This is my new favourite book!

A story of a search for answers after losses

Reviewed in the United States on 5 September 2020

Over the Waters by Deborah Raney is the story of discovering there’s more to life than money. Dr. Max Jordan, aka “Dr Botox,” is a successful plastic surgeon in Chicago. Every decision he has made has focused on his career and his monetary success. He is shocked and angered that his only child, Joshua, after becoming a doctor, has decided to treat Haitian orphans. After Joshua’s death, a very bitter Max searches for answers in the orphanage that his son called home. Valerie Austin escapes to Haiti after the bitter break up of her engagement, seeks to find new meaning in her life. Will Max find his eyes opened to the truth in his son’s sacrifice and the sacrifice of those who work tirelessly for the orphans? Will he be able to find a freedom that he never knew he needed?
Over the Waters is a touching story of the conditions in Haiti, the people who live there and the humanitarian workers and missionaries who work to help those in need. The overall story of Max and Valerie left much to be desired. The book is billed as a romance and there was very little romance. Max was a hard character to like even when he softened a bit about his son’s choice. I had a bit more sympathy for Valerie. Overall, it was enjoyable but not memorable. If you are a fan of Ms Raney, you may enjoy Over the Waters.

nice Christian romance with strong values

Reviewed in the United States on 22 February 2020

Max, a rich and famous plastic surgeon, travels to Haiti to make sense of what his son had lived and died for. Valerie, still smarting from an engagement gone wrong, travels there to help at an orphanage for a few weeks. The startling contrast between their normal life and the life in Haiti sheds new light on needs beyond their comfort zone and challenges them to reconsider their purpose in life.

I give Deb Raney five stars for subject matter. Meaningful Christian fiction dealing with characters in Christian ministry is far too scarce. She does a great job of balancing the crushing need of orphans in Haiti with the joy and hope they can receive from Christ and people who care. Contrary to so much of Christian fiction, Raney emphasizes positive values and compassion over hormones and physical attraction in the romance. She shows the joy and satisfaction in ministry and serving others. I love all that. However, I am disappointed with any Christian romance in which mature Christian believers fall in love with someone before they come to faith in Christ. That is a flaw here. This is also an American book written for American believers so it emphasizes the part Americans play in providing for the needs of Haitians. While I understand that, perhaps more could have been done to highlight the part Haitians played in this ministry.

Overall, this is an interesting read with characters who make you care about them.
