What Follows After by Dan Walsh - Revell Blog Tour

I received this book in exchange for my unbiased opinion. Some advertisement included.

In 1962, life was simple, the world made sense, and all families were happy.
And when they weren't, everyone knew you were supposed to pretend.

Cover ArtFor the past year, Scott and Gina Harrison have been living a lie. While they show up at family get-togethers in the same car, they've actually been separated for over a year. To keep up the charade, they've even instructed their sons, Colt and Timmy, to lie--to their grandparents, their teachers, and their friends.

Colt, for one, has had enough, so he hatches a plan. He and his little brother will run away from their Florida home, head for their aunt's house in Georgia, and refuse to come home until their parents get back together.
But when things go terribly, terribly wrong, Scott and Gina must come to grips with years of neglect and mistrust in order to recover their beloved sons, their love for one another, and their marriage.

In this emotional story, bestselling author Dan Walsh takes you on a journey to rediscover the things that matter most in life--love, truth, and family. With profound insight into the heart of a hurting child, he reminds us that a time will come to look back on hard times and smile, because we'll know that what follows after . . . is not what we expected at all.

My Thoughts:
This book will grab you from chapter one.  The suspense, heart gripping story will capture your heart and keep you reading til the end. This book really touched my heart because many of the scenes seemed to be something I have been through, or have known someone who has been through them. This book will make you re-evaluate importance of family, love, and priorities.  Dan has a wonderful style of writing in which the story flows smoothly and keeps your attention. I have read various books in the past by him, and have enjoyed each and every one. I do not  know what else to say about this except, expect the unexpected. You will be surprised, maybe even cry as this will certainly grip your emotions. So grab your copy and set aside some time to read!
