A New Beginning

Life goes on with these characters you have met in Barbara Eubanks' first novel, A Web too Tight. Just as she did in it, A New Beginning: God's Second Chances, Eubanks entices readers to keep turning pages to see the resolution of one crisis after another - everything from a plane crash to war injuries. The readers feel as though they are a part of the Pate family, once again, as they celebrate their joys and grieve over sorrows. Although A New Beginning: God's Second Chances will stand alone, reading A Web too Tight first will enhance the reading experience, introduce the characters, and give more background information. God is a God of second chances. In A New Beginning: God's Second Chances, several of the characters are awarded second chances for happiness in life, as beneficiaries of God's grace: After a troubled first marriage to a pastor who falls to adultery, Molly experiences a blissful life with her new husband, Dr. Thad Simmons. Benji discovers there CAN be life after devastating tragedy. Caitlin finds relief from sin and guilt when both God and her husband Bob forgive her transgressions. A captivating read, and who does not need a second chance? -- Gay Martin, Author of Alabama Off the Beaten Path, Louisiana Off the Beaten Path, and Alabama's Historic Restaurants and Their Recipes. Since 9/11, thousands of young Americans have given their lives in service to our Nation. Tens of thousands more have sustained life-changing injuries and have navigated the realities of recovery and returning home. A New Beginning: God's Second Chances offers a glimpse into the spirit, tenacity and perseverance of these young heroes. Barbara Eubank's compelling story strongly reinforces the importance of God's love, family, and home-town support for the effective recovery and reintegration of our Wounded Warriors. It also salutes the amazing contributions by our expert caregivers in facilities like Walter Reed Army Medical Center who routinely accomplish extraordinary things in order to provide "second chances" for our injured service members.
