David is a mighty warrior for Christ and works to raise his family in the joy of knowing their Savior. He doesn't hesitate to let others outside the family know that he lives his life for Christ, which is incredibly refreshing! Through a series of tragic and preventable events, David McClain dies, but not before telling Summer "Don't let my life be in vain." but his death has a number of unintended consequences. Summer become withdrawn, overwhelmed, develops a lot of anger and bitterness, and suffers from a broken spirit. Those surrounding the McCain family also have problems that come to light: David's partner, Jay, feels guilt for not being with David when he was shot; Summer's friend, Antoine, disappears without any communication to anyone; a girl from school, Monique, begins to bully Summer and it escalates as the school year begins; Jasmine, Summer's best friend has bulimia, it comes to light and through the intervention of Summer's mother, she goes away for treatment. Through all that happens, we are reminded that ". . . weeping may stay for the night, but rejoicing comes in the morning". Psa 30:5 NIV The knots in the story begin to unravel and ultimately the family comes to realize that God worked in their lives and He showed each one of them that He would get them through even the toughest of times. This is a fantastic book, written with a great amount of heart and I highly recommend it! ~ Patricia, Room With Books ~ © Feb 26, 2014 (  ) roomwithbooks | Aug 31, 2015 | sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

This book puts you on an emotional ride. You feel Summer’s pain as she strives to pick up the pieces of her life that’s left after her father’s death. Every time she thought she had as much as she could handle, something else would happen. Although quite emotional, this is a great novel for any Christian Fiction fan, as it teaches us about forgiveness and God’s love.
