    This book is about the life long walk of a couple meant to be together despite powerful forces working to keep them apart. The story, though mostly taking place in their Living Room, not only contains a timeline within a timeline, but one universe within another. The main characters transcend the these realities simultaneously with each reality reaching their endpoint separately before continuing, yet again, into another reality to end their story. 
    We must know that our life stories never actually end and that they continue into eternity balanced on the Cross as a scale between His grace and our obedience. We all are on an inescapable collision course with Christ and this book demonstrates that ALL roads lead to Christ whether we like it or believe it or not. No worldly distraction nor pursuits will prevent this ultimate collision. This ultimate encounter will determine our ultimate fate. 
    I believe you will enjoy this story as much as I did writing it. 
    This book was created at home by just a group of 3 out of a house. We did the best we could with what little experience and help we had. We hope you enjoy the book as a lot of effort and heart was poured into it.

    Erik Davis, her best friend since middle school, is content to enjoy Sadie's culinary skills too while maintaining their "friends only" status. Most of his energy is focused on his just-launched freelance business and casual dates that never come close to a commitment.

    How can Erik convince Sadie that the well-known adage "Marry your best friend" just might apply to them? With God's help, can they both move past their assumptions about each other and their future? Should Sadie and Erik risk taking their relationship to the romantic point of no return?
