About this book:

While her sister lies on her deathbed, Abby Fischer prays for a miracle. What Abby doesnt expect, however, is for Gods answer to come in the form of the handsome Dr. Robert King, whose experimental treatment is risky at best.
As they work together toward a cure, Abbys feelings for Robert become hopelessly entangled. Separated by the tragedy of the mighty San Francisco earthquake, their relationship suddenly takes a back seat to survival. With fires raging throughout the city, Abby fears for her life as she flees alone through burning streets. Where is God now? Will Robert find Abby, even as the world burns around them? Or has their love fallen with the ruins of the city?

My personal Rating- Four Stars

Abby is a wonderfully real-like character. You feel her emotions; the hurt, sorrow, grief, joy.
She feels like God isnt listening to her, not answering her prayersat one point, she does her bargain prayer, telling Him to heal her sister or shell never talk to Him again and when her sister gets worse she says she isnt going to let Him weasel out of their bargain! Something many people would think!
