Two years have passed since their friend Andys death, and the Eight is still struggling to cope with their loss. In an attempt to give the group some time to reconnect with one another, remember their friend, and reflect on the last two years, Marie decides that a relaxing couples getaway is just what they need before the craziness of the holiday season begins. When their large cabin in the woods turns out to be more rundown than rustic, though, Marie fears that shes ruined everything, but at least, she thinks, the trip cant get any worsethat is, until a lost English girl named Beth appears at the cabin. And with such heavy snow, the Eight is forced to take her in for the next twenty-four hours. Although Marie feels as if all her planning and good intentions were for nothing, she has no idea that Beth will give the group a gift they didnt know they needed: the reminder that life may not always be fair and sometimes its painful, but theres always another day. With Shelley Shepard Grays signature thought-provoking, emotional (Patricia Davids, USA TODAY bestselling author) prose, Promises of Tomorrow is a moving story of love, friendship, and faith.
