What could threaten a friendship of over twenty-five years between two Christian men? Could it be family, pride, careers, or a woman?
         
In Kendra Norman-Bellamy's For Love & Grace, Dr. Greg Dixon and Attorney Derrick Madison, born one day apart in the same hospital, are as close as brothers. However, when Derrick loses his mother to a fatal car accident, his whole attitude changes. He pushes away his wife, his baby daughter, and especially his best friend, Greg, upon a disturbing discovery about Greg and Jessica Grace Charles, the woman who allegedly killed Derrick's mother.

For Love & Grace poses questions about two of the strongest emotions: love and grief. How much will a man do to protect the woman he loves? Also, can a man's grief become so great that it causes him to let go of the people he cherishes?

Kendra Norman-Bellamy's writing evokes the emotions of her readers. For Love & Grace will make you cry both tears of sadness and joy-- as it displays the realistic bond that can exist between two Christian men and the challenges they must learn to overcome.

All in all, Mrs. Norman-Bellamy has created a wonderfully moving novel in which we see how the power of God can restore people and relationships.
