The Long Way Around

Luckily, the story doesn’t end there. Gina’s mother encourages her to contact Brett, figuring the two can help each other through their similar tragedies. When Gina decides to heed her mother’s advice by sending a letter to Brett, little does she know that her letter of encouragement would begin a friendship and later spark a relationship rooted in faith, understanding, and hope. As Gina and Brett continue their correspondence, the reader watches a touching love story unfold, where God brings beauty out of the ashes.
