Swimming to the Surface

She believed them when they said if she prayed harder, loved better, submitted more, her husband would change. They were wrong.

Kelsey Mitchell spent fourteen years drowning in a marriage to a charming narcissist who used Scripture as a weapon and the church as a shield. Todd is handsome, charismatic, and widely regarded as the tragic victim of a difficult wife. But when her daughter's illness becomes another tool in Todd's arsenal, Kelsey stops drowning and starts swimming.

Alex Bechtel is an accidental pastor with a giant dog named Obadiah, a 1995 Lincoln donated by the church, and zero patience for spiritual abuse disguised as godliness.
