Between You and Us

By Kendra Broekhuis

Description:

Two possible lives to live. One impossible choice to make.

When Leona Warlon heads across the city to meet her husband, David, for a rare dinner out, she hopes they can share a moment of relief after their year of loss. But Leona quickly realizes this is no ordinary date night. She hasn’t just stepped into an upscale ristorante; she’s stepped into a different version of her life. One in which her marriage is no longer tender, in which her days are pressured by her powerful in-laws, and in which her precious baby girl lived.

Now Leona must weigh the bitter and sweet of both trajectories, facing an unimaginable choice: Stay in a world where tragedy hasn’t struck but where the meaningful life she built with David is gone? Or return to a reality that’s filled with struggle and sorrow but also deep and enduring love?

Book Takeaway:

"Between You and Us touches on heavy topics with a dose of humor and a lot of love, ultimately encouraging readers that even our trauma makes us who we are. Readers of contemporary women’s fiction and inspirational faith fiction will be moved by the message that everything—even the traumatic events of our lives—make us who we are and are aligned with God’s will for our lives. Additionally, women who have experienced unimaginable loss will be comforted by Leona’s laments and realizations." - ECPA's 'Rush to Press'
