Description
Ellie grew up believing in God through the Catholic church. However, through a series of life events stemming from childhood, she was left to believe she had been abandoned by Him over and over again. She was in her mid-thirties and had just hit the ten-year mark in her marriage when a devastating accident brings on major realizations, causing her to reevaluate her entire perspective on life and her relationship. In trying to find her new purpose and identity and the love and acceptance she has longed for since she was a little girl, she decides to leave her husband and seek fulfillment of the hole left inside of her by the only way she knows how--men. On the surface, she is having the time of her life and enjoys every chase but realizes through each encounter she is still left with a feeling of emptiness and worthlessness that has been there all her life.
Desperate for a deeper connection, she falls for a handsome charmer who showers her with affection and promises her everything she's been missing. Before long, she instead finds herself held within the controlling grip of a toxic and abusive relationship, unable to break free from the constant promise of the potential of what could be. Will the trauma of that relationship push her back into her old ways, causing her to give up on real love altogether, or will it inspire her to be on her own, where her eyes and heart might finally be open to see the One who hadn't ever abandoned her at all but instead had been pursuing her with His relentless love all along?
