A Fragile Hope By Cynthia Ruchti



Josiah Chamberlain's life's work revolves around repairing other people's marriages. When his own is threatened by his wife's unexplained distance, and then threatened further when she's unexpectedly plunged into an unending fog, Josiah finds his expertise, quick wit and clever quips are no match for a relationship that is clearly broken.

Feeling betrayed, confused, and ill-equipped for a crisis this crippling, he reexamines everything he knows about the fragility of hope and the strength of his faith and love. Love seems to have failed him. Will what’s left of his faith fail him, too? Or will it be the one thing that holds him together and sears through the impenetrable wall that separates them?

Cynthia recently retired from 33 years of writing and producing a daily radio broadcast called THE HEARTBEAT OF THE HOME, is past president of the 2,700-member American Christian Fiction Writers, and now serves as ACFW's Professional Relations Liaison, all while working on more book projects in addition to the fifteen already on the shelves.

I have never read a book by Ruchti that I did not LOVE. And A Fragile Hope was one that I will read again and again. I cried and cried and was filled with Hope. This is a book that you have no clue where its going, You think one thing and another comes to pass. You have no idea how this book is going to end.
You are going to love to hate Josiah, and you are going to feel for Karin. they are two of the best characters.
I read it in one sitting and I HIGHLY recommend it. This is such a moving book of Hope.
I gave this book 5 stars two times.
I received  this book from the publisher for review. A favorable was not required and all views expressed are my own.

  11. The only story I've read by Cynthia is "Restoring Christmas". I didn't know what to expect, but I was very pleasantly surprised at how well I enjoyed the book! I'm definitely planning on reading more of her novels. They are emotionally packed & faith-filled, hopeful stories; just the kind I LOVE!

    Thanks for the lovely review, I'll be entering the promosimple contest for sure! Blessings, Mary
