Publisher's Synopsis

A family therapist is in the storm of his life - crises at home, work, and health. He meets a kid at an Arby's drive thru, and they strike up a friendship. She's got her own issues, surprises him every few weeks; he wants to help, encourages her, as a new deacon, limited by the setting. She misses work often; he learns of her circumstances, one cup of coffee at a time!

When he returns home, it's also bumpy; he and wife Heidi have a storm of their own brewing. They watch the news, battle over religion and politics. She has a large career, is focused and progressing.

He speculates about his friend, looking for a diagnosis, meds, or her next step. During the storm, he dreams of his grandson, two days before he's born! He loses his job, at the beginning of Me Too, falsely accused; later that week, an angel appears to him! There are subsequent Godwinks - complex but encouraging!

He meets his friend's family, surprised how vulnerable they are. Can such a fragile, unlikely relationship torpedo a long-established family?
