Dogwood by Chris Fabry

From the publisher:

Will returns to Dogwood intent on pursuing Karin, the only woman he has ever loved--only to find there is far more standing in his way than lost years in prison. The secrets of Will and Karin's past emerge through a young boy who wishes he hadn''t survived the tragedy that knit those two together and then tore them apart.

Please right now go to the nearest bookstore and buy this book. Dogwood starts out a bit slow and kind of confusing as the chapters are told from different characters' point of view. But it picks up quickly. I had no idea where the book was going and how everything would be resolved. Chris Fabry is a master storyteller and kept me on the edge of my seat, especially waiting to find out the details of the events that lead up to Will being put in jail. The first big reveal at the end was shocking and brilliant. I was amazed at the author going there. The last chapter was beautiful. This book shocked me, brought me to tears, and revealed Jesus' love to me in a different way. I so enjoyed Dogwood. I am excited to read more books by Chris Fabry.
