Fiction. Christian Fiction. HTML:After tragedy strikes the Warren family, all of their secrets start to unravel and it takes a mother's love and faith to help heal everyone. Annie Warren always wanted the best for her son, Josh. But years of failure and bad choices created a heartbreaking distance that has grown far worse since the day Josh was hit by a drunk driver. Now on medical disability, Josh has put his life on hold for years, waiting for the insurance company to send a settlement that never seems to come. Worse, he believes the story of a scheming woman who claims they have a seven-year-old daughter named Savannah . Despite the unlikelihood and complete lack of evidence, Josh dreams of being a father and is determined to one day claim the child. His family doesn't know the full story. They don't know what happened the night of the accident that was worth the chronic pain Josh suffers every waking minute, or that he is turning his life around. They haven't seen that Savannah 's eyes are his, and they don't know how desperately the little girl needs her family. When the settlement that rightly belongs to Josh is threatened, Annie sets out to defend her son. But she might find a treasure more valuable than money, one she never expected, one that is the greatest gift her son could ever give her�??THIS SIDE OF HEAVEN.… (más)

A story of family secrets, broken relationships, and a love strong enough to span a nation.

StarBethlehem | Nov 11, 2021 |

I was surprised to see this book listed as a series featuring Cody Gunner because Cody is only a minor character in this book. The book is mostly about the Warren family. (Cody was a friend of Josh Warren.)

Josh Warren was injured while saving two girls from a drunk driver. He's trying to get a settlement to put his life back together--get back surgery, buy a business, contact his one-time girlfriend Becky, find his daughter Savannah. Unfortunately, Josh passes away in his sleep before any of this happens.

In the course of cleaning up his apartment, Josh's family finds out quite a bit about him that they didn't already know as well as meeting some of Josh's friends. Josh's lawyer finds Savannah, and they get to meet her.

We all need to make more of an effort to know people on this side of heaven. (

Every time I finish a Kingsbury novel, I swear to myself that it's the last time I will. She is just so... fluffy, for lack of a better word. I got hopeful with this one when there was an unexpected plot twist but at the end, everyone is happy and a Christian and there is no fall-out from abuse or sin. It makes my teeth ache like cotton candy - you see it all pretty on the cart but two mouthfuls and you are sick to your stomach.

This is it - I promise... and yet she is one of the few Christian authors that my small town library actually stocks so I will probably waver in the future when I'm desperate. Is there a self-help group for being addicted to bad books? (

The pain was a living, breathing demon, pressing its claws deep into his flesh and promising never to let go, not until death had the final word.
