"If there's anyone who doesn't give up, it's God trying to get an idea through my thick skull."

"I've decided it might be best to trust that God has someone else in mind if Max says no."

I could choose to trust You, couldn't I? I love Max and want what's best for him. I know I'm in Gordon Falls for a reason - at least for now. And I love Alex, but his life is elsewhere.

She laughed at her declaration. Didn't God already know all this? Hadn't He known the whole time - even before she'd realized she loved Alex Cushman? Suddenly, out of nowhere, her brain recalled the favorite saying of the army

You know where my home should be, don't You, Lord? I look at this place and it feels like home. A huge part of me wants to stay. Only now my heart has found a home in a man who isn't here. And I can't help but think that's Your doing. ... You've laid out events I could never have imagined. I used to be able to trust You in that. How do I learn to trust You for the rest of this?

How, Lord, how could we ever make this work? The prayer came out of her without decision or effort - the way prayers used to. Why slam our lives together when they can't really mesh? Why draw me so strongly to Gordon Falls now when it would be so much better if I could go to Denver with Max?

"I love you back, JJ Jones. And we'll make it work. Well, us and the Almighty. I think we'll need a hefty dose of divine intervention on this one."

The words didn't ring false. Not a bit. With a startled little glow somewhere way down deep, JJ discovered she still believed in divine intervention. God hadn't turned His back. And that meant anything was possible. In that moment, JJ Jones became the tiniest of optim

"Believe that God wouldn't pull our hearts together for no reason. Believe that it can work out, that He can work it out, even if we can't see that now. Believe in Christmas in July, just for tonight."

She opened her eyes and spent an infinite moment gazing into the endless blue of his eyes before he kissed her. True and full, deep and soft, his kiss was beyond any description her workaday vocabulary could ever contain.

I'm not buying this for one second! I don't believe they are in love at all! I don't even believe they are in lust!

I don't believe she is truly comfortable with Alex or who he really is.

Alex as a gift from a God she'd convinced herself no longer watched over the Jones family.

She could actually allow herself to dream that a 'Max on Wheels' - as he called himself in his brighter moments - could be a better man than the Max who had walked.

Are you sure you want to be saying this shit?

God hadn't left her - it was she who'd left Him. She just had to make room for Him in her life again. And that meant letting go of the despair. For herself, and for Max.

Actually, he felt as if he were in mortal combat for his very soul - despite how melodramatic that sounded.

I need better words, Lord. Help me help her understand. ... "I'm not saying Max's fall was a good thing. It's a horrible thing. But I see now how good can come out of it. The whole Romans 8 'all things work together for good' vibe - I believe it."

The focus wasn't to be found on a mountaintop or in a rainforest; it was inside God's purpose for him.

Hokey as it sounded, Alex hadn't had this strong a sense of God's purpose in years. He felt ridiculous and unstoppable at the same time, and he needed to share that energy with JJ - and eventually with Max.

Come on, Lord. You know how much I need her to say yes. You know how much she needs to hear this.

He knew upon seeing her that the crazy idea God had given him was exactly what he needed to do.

She saw him visibly flinch when she called him Cushman, but she could never call him Alex again. Not now.
...
"I won't say goodbye." The defiance in his voice was forlorn. "I don't believe in goodbyes."

JJ looked him squarely in the eye. "Goodbye."


Again, not a romance by any stretch of the imagination.

The same one Alex had pressed her against when his tender kiss had poured life back into her arid heart.

Wait, wait, wait. They kissed?!?! When!?!?

As a corporate drama this book is passable, but as a romance novel it is an abject failure.

He'd never been so hungry to escape his life and so utterly unable to do so at the same time.
