Synopsis

Last May, Gwen Singer's heart stopped. She's many things, a high school senior, a recovering bulimic, suffering from an anxiety disorder, lost-but aren't we all in a way? She spent her summer without friends and without any kind of plug-in to the outside world. Now, going into her last year of high school, she doesn't really know what to do or where to go. She's best friend-less. They broke apart after things went severely downhill last year. She's boyfriendless. He's ancient history. Add in an estranged father, and it's easy to see why she feels so lost. Gwen is just getting settled in when her older sister shows up again after a two-year absence, engaged to be married and acting as if nothing has happened. But there's something that comes along with her reappearance that becomes not only beneficial to Gwen's recovery and next stages of life, but utterly and completely definable.

About this title

About the Author

Madison Kroeker initially began to write this book as a recovery process only for herself. She had battled bulimia nervosa, EDNOS, and self-harm for nearly a year at that point and had made the decision to begin the long, hard journey toward a better way of living. Jesus Christ was at her side and made her restart possible. It wasn't long after that Madison realized the book she was writing could send a message to other people in the world that they could heal, too. That is why she decided to get it out there. Much of this book is based on personal events in Madison's own recovery journey, though she knows the book as a whole can apply to many peoples' lives. She wanted to give others hope that there really was more than what she was living. Madison lives in Alberta and is newly married. She is pursuing God's will for her life with a passion for living she never knew she had.
