In the sequel to Dream Runner, Gail McFarland tells the story of Marissa and Dench Traylor. Marissa was a very successful sports attorney and Dench was the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons Football team. The two were a team that everyone wanted to be a part of. The only problem that Marissa and Dench had was that they had been unable to conceive a baby.

After years of fertility testing and lots of prayer, Marissa became pregnant and all their dreams were about to be answered. Yet, due to complications, Marissa miscarried and their world was shattered. Dealing with depression and loss of a child, Marissa withdrew and Dench struggled to convince her that things would be fine.

McFarland weaves a very complicated and interesting story of the struggle that couples, who have fertility problems, experience. She gives very detailed accounts of what the procedure costs and what the couple must endure. The readers will find themselves crying and cheering for Marissa and Dench each step of the way. This book is recommended for book clubs to read.
