On
The Edge is the story of Kristen Craemer, a young woman haunted and running
away from the memories of a traumatic childhood. Kristen uses any means possible to escape the
memories of her past by avoiding her mother and even results to using alcohol
to numb the pain and stop the nightmares that threaten to unravel the truth and
force her to confront those memories.
Theresa Santy is a wonderfully
gifted storyteller; she brings Kristen’s story to life with vivid description
that as the reader, you will find yourself engulfed and invested in Kristen’s
journey. The beautiful case of
supporting characters such as Kristen’s mother, Kristen’s childhood friend,
Ethan, and her best friend, Alana also have their individual stories that are
entwined within Kristen’s life and showcase how the relationships in our lives
shape and affect us. Kristen’s
introduction and ambivalence in believing in God is also told in a real way.
This is a beautifully written story
that I recommend that everyone should read.
The themes of love and faith are impactful.
Happy Reading!
Note: I received a free
