Fiction Friday: Indivisible

A story of love, service, and finding each other all over again.

Here’s one from my TBR list and surprise! It’s not a historical. I know, right? What’s going on? Travis Thrasher. That’s what. He’s one of my favorite authors. Honestly, the dude could write a shopping list and I’d be trotting my fanny over to the bookstore to buy it.

This time he’s put his writerly magic into the novelization of a movie inspired by a true story. Indivisible combines faith, heart wrenching choices, and service to our country. Here’s a blurb:

When Darren is deployed to Iraq as an army chaplain, Heather vows to serve military families back home as she cares for the couple’s three young children.

Darren knows he’s overseas to support the troops in their suffering as their chaplain. What he doesn’t know is how he will get through his own dark moments. And as communication from Darren dwindles, Heather wonders what is happening in her husband’s heart. Meanwhile, she’s growing weary in the day-to-day life of a military base—each child’s milestone Darren will never see, each month waiting for orders, each late-night knock on the door.

When Darren returns, he is no longer the husband Heather once knew. She is no longer the woman Darren wed. And so it’s at home that the Turners face their biggest battle: to save their marriage.
