This realistic portrayal of how messy our lives sometimes become shows readers how to find hope in the midst of loss, how to love the unlovable, how to forgive after trust is broken, and how to find God's strength when we've reached the end of our own. I loved it!"--Lynn Austin, author of Until We Reach Home
