About the Book

Faith Morgan is struggling with her faith. Years of neglect leave her doubting that God will ever fix her marriage. When a coworker accuses her husband, Jonah, of the unthinkable, Faith begins to wonder if she really knows him at all, and if it’s truly in God’s will for them to stay married.

Pediatric cardiologist Jonah Morgan is obsessed with one thing: his work. A childhood incident cemented his desire to heal children at any cost, even his family, but now he finds himself at a crossroads in his life. Will he continue to allow the past to haunt him, or find healing and peace in a God he shut out long ago?

Amon Maternity's mission is to simply help women Get Comfortable during pregnancy and beyond.

I was sent the Behold Band to review, but since I am not pregnant I will tell you what I do like about it from my experience with being pregnant before!

We all want comfort, especially when pregnant and sometimes there are times when you feel as if your baby will just drop out onto the floor! Am I right? With the Behold band, you can feel comfortable again with an extra wide under tummy support band. This also helps with those aches and pains you may be feeling in your back due to the extra weight on the front of your stomach. Back problems, I had a lot until I was able to find something that could hold my large stomach up in the 2nd and 3rd trimester! I wish I had known about the Behold Band then!

Giveaway:

I have a $50 GC to Amon Maternity!

• Let me know in the comments which product you would like if you won?
