Katie is up to her ears in school, relationships and of course a few misunderstandings. Looking for a break from it all, she tries to convince Christy to embark on some sort of getaway adventure. To her surprise, it’s Eli who invites Katie to run away on a whim, and it’s God who has something planned for her that is beyond her imagination.
“Gunn is adept at denuding light fiction of its usual
tics-mediocre prose, clichéd characters and predictable plots-and imbuing it
with the hallmarks of literary fiction. The characters are multidimensional and
ring true at nearly every turn. The dialogue that ensues is at once
heartbreaking and utterly familiar to anyone who has ever been in Katie's
shoes. Moreover, Katie's religious faith never feels sentimentalized or tacked
on, but is integrated beautifully into the charming plot.” - Publishers
