About the book:
Hope grows when seeds are planted-even in the muddy middle of life.
Josiah Chamberlain's life's work revolves around repairing other people's marriages. When his own is threatened by his wife's unexplained distance, and then threatened further when she's unexpectedly plunged into an unending fog, Josiah finds his expertise, quick wit and clever quips are no match for a relationship that is clearly broken.
Feeling betrayed, confused, and ill-equipped for a crisis this crippling, he reexamines everything he knows about the fragility of hope and the strength of his faith and love. Love seems to have failed him. Will what's left of his faith fail him, too? Or will it be the one thing that holds him together and sears through the impenetrable wall that separates them?

Cynthia's books are always so inspiring and full of heart. Her latest, "A Fragile Hope," is no exception and it is a beautiful story of forgiveness, grace and hope. Josiah's marriage is in shambles and he is oblivious to this face until a crisis. Josiah is not sure how to handle this, being his own, as he is a professional in this area. Karin is unhappy, she feels that others know and understand her better than Josiah, her own husband. When Karin is in an accident Josiah learns unsettling news and is forced to put the pieces together and realize the true state of how things are.
Cynthia has done an amazing job of weaving together this story filled with heartache, and yet hope as well. The characters are so real and are so easy to empathize with. I also loved the "sayings" at the beginning of each chapter; this is such a nice touch and addition to the book. I highly recommend this book, you will not want to stop reading once you start!
