Inspiring, Moving and A Real Page Turner!

Imagine you have just celebrated your twelfth wedding anniversary. Life is wonderfully beautiful -- until one day, out of the blue -- the past comes back to haunt you in the worst way possible. This happens to David and Abby Treasure. David has an announcement for Abby, his wife of 12 years. The results of his announcement will bring to light heartache and pain that ordinarily tear even the strongest married couple apart. Abby Treasure finds out her husband had an affair nine years ago while she was pregnant with their son. The woman David had an affair with calls him requesting a meeting. At this meeting, David finds out he has a little girl that he never knew about. Even more devastating, the little girl has leukemia and is in desperate need of a bone marrow transplant. David and his son are prime candidates as donors. With extraordinary writing, Deborah Bedford delivers a novel that will move the reader emotionally and spiritually. Forgiveness and redemption are powerfully displayed as Abby comes to grips with David's betrayal and the "other" woman, whose child is dying. While this book is fictional, the themes that run througout the novel can surely encourage a real-life married couple going through heartaches in their own marriage.

A Morning Like This

I loved this book. We recently moved to Jackson which makes it even better. ha.. There are things that I am currently going through which are unrelated to the story plot but I recieved a message from it. This is a story of an affair that was covered over for years and suddenly surfaces with a child in need. David Treasures has to deal with his own personal Christian walk and his attempt to keep his affair a secret or lose everything. This book deals with true emotions and touched on other issues you might have in your everyday Christian walk. You watch as Abigail struggles with her own issues of betrayal and forgiveness. I encourage you to read this book and get lost in Deborah's wonderful way with words. PS: You might need a tissue.. I did.. : )

Following God isn't about obeying rules, it's about passion

This author is fast becoming one of my favorites. She does not gloss over the pain and betrayal of finding out that your husband has had an affair. In fact, she takes the care to linger on all of those feelings and make sure that they ring true. My husband and I went through a struggle like this six years ago and, when I began the story, I thought it would not equal what happens in real life. But I was wrong. Bedford writes of a wife who feels betrayed and alone and unloved. She writes of a woman who is willing to set an ultimatum and then love her husband even though she looks at him across the room and sees somebody she doesn't know. At the back of the book, there is a list of recommended reading for people struggling. This story is set in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. It is fast paced, with even a scene of the husband climbing the Grand Teton, coming down in a storm. This book is good entertainment. It will also take you on a deep spiritual search. Is God someone who really wants to have a relationship with us? Can we do that, even when all our relationships around us fail?I believe so. I lived this story, and my marriage is stronger now than some of my friends who have good marriages. Look for other books by Deborah Bedford, including A Rose By The Door and The Story Jar. She doesn't pull any punches and she doesn't back away from tough, interesting issues.

Another moving story from Deborah Bedford

Although the plot is one readers have seen many times before (unfaithful spouse, secret child), Bedford's writing has a beauty of voice that makes this book special. I'll be recommending it to others.
