Review by Anne
At a very young age Bobby's father left him and his mother to their own devices, now 8 yrs later they both realize that he isn't coming back and their life must go on.

From a child to a teenager with the weight of the world on his shoulders Bobby goes through so much, as he learns that his mother has been diagnosed with cancer in her kidneys.... determined not to lose anyone else in his life that he loves most importantly the one person who has always been there for him, guiding him through his life, step by step. The one person who loves him unconditionally - HIS MOM-
Cancer is spreading faster than the doctors thought it would and time is running out for his mom. He has to do something and do it something fast, to do everything that he can to save her. Not knowing what to do or where to turn so many people have told him that they would PRAY for her, not having much knowledge on faith or God Bobby is at odds with himself. Can God be the person to turn to? What would he say to God if he was to pray to him, asking for his help in saving his Mom from this cancer that is spreading faster and faster?
Taking a leap in faith he says a prayer to God asking for him to save his Mom from the cancer, after all it couldn’t hurt could it? Still not feeling that he was doing everything he could, he starts to form a plan and then setting it in action. Looking for help on his own Bobby embarks on a journey no matter where it took him or how far.
After running away in search of a way to save his Mom, Bobby comes to meet a young girl named Annie also a runaway. Together they take off on a journey where along the way they find a friendship that lasts forever and the true meaning of God.
This story is an awesome heart wrenching story!!!! It will leave you believing that there is a God, and that the faith is out there for you to reach out for, taking it into your grasp.
I truly enjoyed this, highly recommending to others. Thank you so much Crystal for this truly intoxicating novel.
A MUST READ FOR ALL AGES.
