Broken Together
Bella is spiraling down a dark tunnel of despair since seeing her husband, Daniel, kissing another woman. Despite receiving loving support from friends and family, when Dan says he is divorcing her, her life falls completely apart.
Afraid their daughter may be having suicidal thoughts, John and Ginny send Bella and her two best friends, Alicia and Charley, on a cruise of the Greek islands. Awakening from a nightmare in the wee hours of the morning, Bella wanders into the darkness of the promendade deck of the ship. Leaning over the rail she is hypnotized by the black waters. She lifts a foot onto the lower bar of the rail and then raises her other foot leaning over even further.
A voice whispers out of the darkness, "May I join you?"
Bella turns as male figure emerges fom the dark shadows. She is confused and then horrified when the voice clarifies his statement. "I noticed you were about to jump and I'd like to join you."
Can these two broken strangers help each other find a path towards healing their broken hearts?

I really enjoyed this story. I felt Bella's grief over the loss of her marriage, even though I've never been married myself. I was so glad when she got beyond her grief to live for herself & her son. The ending was terrific!

This book had me hooked from the first few pages. I couldn't put it down for long time when I first started reading it and then had to finish it the next day.
The character descriptions were realistic and I was intrigued the way every character related to each other. The good times and especially bad times.
I knew that I would be reading this as I've read others of Sarah's books. Those were fantastic too.
This book goes through how believing in God and trusting in him will likely help each of us through the worst times and bless us within our lives. True family and friends are also there in bad times. Ending showed how all things can be tied together.
