A Heartbeat Away


Rachel Ann Nunes - 2003
    . . but a Heartbeat Away left me feeling very content and uplifted. . .

All in all, this was an excellent book, and I'm glad I read it." –Melanie Goldmund of Kiel, Germany Book Description "You think it's never going to happen to you. I know because that's how I was—untouchable. Bad things only happen to someone else. Or if something bad actually did happen, it was always something the doctor could fix with fiberglass or a pill.

Or can there ever be a healing after such a devastating trial?Looming above them all is the question—who is responsible for Kristin's disappearance? Is it their beloved uncle?

I LOVED IT!" –Angie of Springville, Utah"What a great book to read for all, a real wake up call for safety. I have never read a book by this author, but I loved this book.
