Book excerpt: A marriage is tested when the wife lapses into a coma after childbirth in a “gripping tale of a young family in crisis” from a New York Times bestseller (The Boston Globe). It can take a long time to build up a life, and only moments to destroy it. Gary and Molly met in the way couples do: after a long haul of being single, quickly becoming soulmates and rejoicing in that fact. Beautiful, red-haired Molly ignites a fire in Gary and he eases the pain she feels about her past. Starting a family is something they both want badly to do, and with great joy Molly finds herself pregnant. When she leaves for the hospital things start to go seriously wrong. Just a few weeks later Gary is alone with a newborn and a mountain of medical bills he has no means to pay for. Desperate for help, he calls on Molly’s long estranged sister, Suzanne.
