If Tomorrow Never Comes by Marlo Schalesky
I’ve never read a book by Marlo Schalesky, but I met her at ICRS 2008. What is it about meeting an author in person that makes you want to run out, buy the book and read it from cover to cover. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to crack the cover yet. Too many good books, too little time! One day I’ll get my act together.
But just because my act isn’t together doesn’t mean you should miss out on this one. And when I’m caught up, you can expect a review! In the meantime, read my interview with Marlo! An get to know this wonderful writer mom!
Marlo Schalesky is the author of several books, including Beyond the Night and Empty Womb, Aching Heart. A graduate of Stanford University, Marlo also has a masters of theology with an emphasis in biblical studies from Fuller Theological Seminary. Married over twen ty years, she lives with her husband, Bryan, and their five children in California.
Childhood sweethearts Kinna and Jimmy Henley had simple dreams—marriage, children, a house by the sea… Everything they needed for happily ever after. What they didn’t plan on was years of infertility, stealing those dreams, crushing their hopes.
Now, all that’s left is the memory of young love, and the desperate need for a child to erase the pain. Until…
When Kinna rescues an elderly woman from the sea, the threads of the past, present, and future weave together to reveal the wonder of one final hope. One final chance to follow not their dreams, but God’s plan.
Can they embrace the redemptive power of love before it’s too late? Or will their love be washed away like the castles they once built upon the sand?
