Corrine Channell takes us on a journey following Jon and Kate, who have been friends since they were toddlers. They end up falling in love with each other during their high school years. Their love for each other continued into their college years where they stayed together, despite attending different colleges. They married right out of college, sealing their union with a kiss. Not long after their wedding, we learn of John’s love of God and Kate’s aversion to anything religious. Channell knows how to weave a simple story into a thought-provoking and insightful life lesson. She offers us a glimpse of the internal struggle and turmoil of a woman without faith. The picture that she paints is both vivid due to her attention to detail. I found myself sad when Kate and John were struggling and happy when all had been resolved. Corrine Channell’s style of writing and ability to spin a tale will have you emotionally invested in the outcome of the characters well-being and the future of their relationship.
