In Faith by Michelle Larks, Monet and Marcus Caldwell have the perfect marriage except they are not able to conceive. Monet is an exceptional nurse who takes pride in her work. Marcus is an excellent police officer who follows his oath to protect and serve. He receives an unexpected phone call that his wife, Monet, has been attacked and it changes the Caldwell’s world forever.
After some time passes Monet receives what she believes is good news, and plans a beautiful dinner to share the news with her husband. She is holding strong that God has blessed them, but her plans do not go as expected and the night ends with Marcus leaving their home angry. The couple’s emotions are in turmoil and it seems nothing will be resolved. Marcus is too stubborn to listen and Monet will not go against God’s will.
Wade and Liz are longtime friends of the Caldwells and are always available to provide words of encouragement and prayer. Monet’s twin brothers, Derek and Duane, have also been supportive until an issue with their deadbeat father comes to the forefront. Now, an additional problem has been brought into the Caldwell home, placing more fire on an already burning flame. It is now clear the Caldwells are going through a test that requires strength, guidance, forgiveness, and togetherness, but will they listen to God’s plan for them?
Faith is an outstanding novel with strong characters. I was fascinated within the first three chapters. The reader will discover that undying love and the power of faith will help you overcome. While reading this novel, I had a sense of God’s presence throughout the novel, but it did not overpower the storyline. I highly recommend this novel to those who believe they cannot get through their pain or have lost their faith.
