Eva and Angela must learn to live again. One step at a time. It has been fifteen months since Eva and Angela lost their thrill-seeking husbands in a scuba diving accident. Both women are trying to navigate their way through the grief, but neither one is making much progress. Angela is barely making ends meet, angry at her husband for leaving her to raise three children on her own. Meanwhile, Eva is stuck, unable to move forward after losing the love of her life and her source of inspiration. But then Eva gets a life-changing phone call. Before Brent and Wes died, they had signed up for a race of a lifetimean ultra-marathon in beautiful New Zealand. Eva begs Angela to run the race with her in their husbands place, and Angela finally agrees, hoping to finally understand her husband's choices. Training is exhausting, and the race is even more demanding. Their journey grows more complicated by the presence of two menMarc is Brents best friend who is running the race with Eva and Angela, and Simon King is a writer who is covering their inspiring story. With every step, Eva and Angela must ask themselves questions that they havent had the courage to ask before. As the women literally put one foot in front of the other, they wonder: Is it possible to find their way forward in hope?

This is a faith-based journey of two sisters-in-law through their grief and re-discovery of joy following the loss of their husbands (who were brothers). They embark on a 155-mile charity race in New Zealand which their husbands had planned to compete in. Along the way they each work through their own memories, emotions and self-examinations as they begin their healing journeys. While I think the story could have been tightened up and that 🔻🔻

robinb Eva and Angela seemed to be rehashing issues that I thought were resolved (frustrating/annoying at turns), overall I liked seeing how each one, coming at grief from different perspectives, were able to ultimately move forward in their own ways through their faith. 4/5⭐️ 5y

Once again Lindsay Harrel masterfully weaves together broken and raw emotions into a beautiful tapestry of hope, faith, discovery, and victory while sensitively and artfully addressing grief from different perspectives. The heroines of the story are two sisters-in-law, bound by grief of having lost their husbands in one terrible accident. In this journey, they begin their discovery of purpose, passion, and ultimately God.
