Piper Redding is a loner, but lonely. Everyone she loves has abandoned her and
opening her heart to others is just asking for more pain. She can’t help but blame
herself for her brother’s tragic death six years ago, and in her guilt, she shuts herself
off from the world. No one could love her—not even the God who promised to be there
for her but wasn’t.
For paramedic Ezra Bryant, failure is not an option. He’s had enough of it, and only by
God’s grace is he able to put it behind him. But when a traumatic event brings Piper’s
greatest fear and Ezra’s failures to light, can they use that event to allow God to mend
their broken pieces? Can love triumph over fear, and grace over guilt?
Sarah Grace Grzy is a voracious reader, and if it weren't for this crazy
thing called 'Life,' she'd be tempted to spend all her days in front of a wood stove,
book in one hand, coffee mug in the other.
A lover of learning, she finds enjoyment in many things and has more hobbies than
she knows what to do with. Sarah Grace is a freelance web and graphic designer, and
when not working, spending time with her ever-growing family, or reading, she can
be found painting, playing the piano, or fangirling with her sisters and friends. Sarah
Grace inhabits the State of Great Lakes, and wouldn't want to live anywhere else--
unless it meant she could have a baby penguin, in which case, she'd gladly move to the South Pole.

"Live Without You" by Sarah Grace Grzy is another book that pulls at the heart strings but I recommend reading it if you like clean love stories. This book really lets you feel the pain and sorrow that Ezra and Piper has. Both of these characters are looking for love and trying to get over the past.
This story deals with the after math of a gang war in Chicago. But the story isn't about the war, just the efforts of someone in the crossfires.
I really like that the two meet again after so long time. It was not the best of circumstances but good did come from it.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Celebrate Lit and the author. These opinions are my own.
