The restoration story is powerful, uplifting, and filled with hope. The story is very well organized, and the fact that it is true gives it a wonderful testimony feel to it. It would be much better to break the paragraphs up with dialogue. Since the book is full of conversation, the narrative gets a bit tedious at times. And it is completely narrative without dialogue. There were quite a number of typos, though. She did not give up even when it seemed the best thing to do. I was delighted to read how one woman determined to restore her marriage following God's plan, and not her own. This is an amazing journey to redemption of not only two souls, but redemption of a marriage. Her ups and downs as a wife, mother, daughter, woman and human are all chronicled in her journal and now a testimonial novel, known as her restoration journey. With a new found faith and hope, Erica set out to restore her marriage and face the uphill battle of winning back her unbelieving husband, not just for her marriage, but for her family and most importantly, for the kingdom of God. Once He got a hold of her, there was no letting go and Erica never looked back. After a series of events that could have only been the Lord moving, Erica found herself making the decision to live and follow Jesus. Little did Erica know that there was a loving God that had an entirely different plan for her life. With seemingly nowhere to turn, taking her own life seemed like the perfect solution. With no family, friends, money or job, Erica quickly fell into depression and hopelessness.

A stay at home wife and mom since getting married, she was suddenly left alone to care for two small children in a town David had moved the family to since being promoted. On the verge of celebrating her five year wedding anniversary to David, Erica was devastated when David walked away instead.
