Broken Rhythm
About The Book:
Shortly after the tragic loss of Carol's twin brothers, she bumped her way into Ben's. Despite the unusual season and circumstances, love happened, and a marriage built on strong friendship.

Dreams and hopes become threatened, as they would.
Will this family sustain their faith in God during such heavy trials?
A story of enduring faith in God through the mountains and the valleys.

"A very good piece of fiction; full of imagination and creativity. The flow, the suspense and the language, all make it an excellent work of literature!"

"Broken Rhythm opened my eyes to how two Christians should go about dating and growing into a new relationship with each other. The language is very understandable and easy to read. I love how Busola introduced each of the characters and the friends of Carol into the story and how much they all fitted into the flow of the story, and I felt close to each of Carol's friends throughout the story.
I like that the book showed the bad and difficult moments in life rather than just showing the good side of a marriage. It was good how supportive their friends were through the difficult times of the story and the love they all showed to Carol and Ben. This book was very enjoyable to read and to follow. Would definitely recommend other young men to read this book for a brilliant insight into Christian relationships and marriage."
