Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a book that touches to the soul. Art and Allison's story exemplifies that not only grief and sadness but also deep healing and growth can come out of unimaginable tragedy. And that the process is about feelings and tears and love and anger and honesty and love and not knowing how to be and wondering how to go on and love and letting friends in and letting them see you and love. It is about being human in the face of unspeakable grief. And it is about love.
I cannot recommend a book more highly than I do this one. It is a book that will tear at your heart and elevate your spirit. For anyone who is dealing with their own humanness - read this book and celebrate life!

On a crisp winter's day in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado, Art Daily suffered a terrible tragedy. While driving home with his family from a youth hockey game, a large boulder dislodged from the canyon wall and struck their car, killing his wife and two sons–while leaving him inexplicably untouched. In one instant, Art's entire life crumbled, leaving him feeling utterly alone. As family, friends, and the entire Aspen community rushed in to offer comfort and support, Art faced what he imagined to be a bleak and lonely future. But what he found surprised him: the healing power of a stranger's grace.That stranger was Allison, a twenty-eight-year-old Texan who had stopped in Aspen on her way to a new life. Allison was a woman struggling with her own grief following her older brother's suicide and the end of her marriage. When she heard of Art's tragedy, she felt compelled to reach out to him, a person whom she had never met but with whom she identified deeply.
