The car accident that killed Abby's husband and daughter has made Abby to suffer from severe pain. It not only affected on her physical pain but also on mental pain terribly. In order to begin a new life and to get rid of her pain, she moved to new apartment in New Jersey where Marsh Winslow, the professor, lived. When she met him at first, he seemed so unkind and a temperamental human being. When only Abby witnessed a injured girl from a hit-and-run accident and could not attest about her witness due to the shock, however, Marsh helped her in God's way and became her only guardian angel.This book has a romantic and inspirational mystery story that remind readers of what God tells them about a suffering. For both Abby and Marsh, God was controlling their broken lives to restore those to happier lives. This book enlightens me about the definition of suffering that it is not just unfortunate process for our lives but a gift of God that makes our lives better. As worse suffering I suffer, the more amazing grace would be given by God as Abby experienced His grace through the loss of her family. Since the unfortunate event was also one of God's plans for her life, He gave Marsh as a gift and as the reward of Abby being withstood the hardship in God. This book would inspire even non-christians because Abby's harsh situation can be seen in our real lives in general. I really recommend this book for people who have been suffering from severe pain and do not have any hope for their lives.Gayle is a christian author who wrote a series of christian book including Summer Shadows. She usually connets God to general stories that can be applied to anyone. Because of this reason, many people heal their hearts from her books.
