    About this audiobook

    With one flash of a camera, Demi's private life becomes public news. She doesn't know it yet, but her healing has just begun. Christian college professor Demitria Costanas had vowed to end her affair with a colleague. But she gives into temptation one last time... and a lurking photographer captures her weakness for all to see. Quite literally, she's the woman caught in adultery. And almost everyone herself included has a stone to throw. Enter Sullivan Crisp, a decidedly unorthodox psychologist with his own baggage. He's well-known for his quirky sense of humor and incorporation of game show" theology into his counseling sessions. And yet there's something more he offers . . . hope for a fresh start. Reluctantly, the two of them begin an uplifting, uneven journey filled with healing and grace. With funny and touching turns, this audiobook explores the ways humans hurt each other and deceive themselves. And it shows the endlessly creative means God uses to turn stones of accusation and shame into works of beauty that lead us onto the path of healing.

      I'm generally not a fan of books that are co-written by a therapist (see the "R" series by Karen Kingsbury - blaugh). I'm also typically not a fan of books that flip between first person and third person - I consider it cheating. But by the time I had finished this book, I'd forgiven Nancy Rue both and am glad to see that Sullivan Crisp will be resurrected again.

      Rue is not your typical Christian author. She errs on the side of grace, not judgement and she is truly taking her life in her hands when she tangles with the touchy subject of adultery on a Christian campus. While not condoning the actions of her characters, she does show us the emotional toll their actions take and ultimately, there is redemption. I wish more movers and shakers in Christendom would take up that message.
