As Waters Gone By

About The Book:  How can a marriage survive when separated by hundreds of miles and impenetrable prison walls?  Emmalyn and Max Ross may have to endure the fight of their lives to mend the tattered fabric of their marriage. His actions ensured she could never be a mother and put him in prison, giving their relationship a court-mandated five-year time-out. On a self-imposed exile to beautiful but remote Madeline Island, one of the Apostle Islands of Lake Superior, Emmalyn has just a few months left to figure out if and how they can ever be a couple again.  Nudged along by the exuberant owner of the Wild Iris Inn and Café, a circle of misfit people in their small town, and a young girl who desperately needs someone to love her, Emmalyn restores an island cottage that could become a home and begins to restore her heart by learning what it means to love unconditionally. Yet even as hope begins to find a place within the cottage walls, Emmalyn still wonders if she’s ready for Max’s release. She may be able to rebuild a cottage, but can she rebuild a marriage?

My Thoughts On The Book:  I was delighted to be chosen to read and review this book.  It was an amazingly written story of people coming to terms with the hands they had been dealt in life and finding redemption.  I LOVED IT!  I loved everything about it.  The setting, the characters, all felt as if they were familiar to me.  The Great Lakes are magnificent and I could feel I was drawn on to the island with all the characters.  They became real on the page.  Ruchti has quite a knack for character development.  This is a must read and a definite addition for a person library.
