She was the beautiful only child of South Carolina’s most powerful senator. Yet once Doss Michaels and Abigail Grace Coleman met by accident, they each felt they’d found their true soul mate. Ten years into their marriage, when Abbie faces a life-threatening illness, Doss battles it with her every step of the way. And when she makes a list of ten things she hopes to accomplish before she loses the fight for good, Doss is there, too, supporting her and making everything possible. Together they steal away in the middle of the night to embark upon a 130-mile trip down the St. Mary’s River—a voyage Doss promised Abbie in the early days of their courtship. Where the River Ends chronicles their love-filled, tragedy-tinged journey and a bond that transcends all. 2752172 15 7 2008 Where the River Ends total:348|5:98|4:143|3:82|2:18|1:7| 348 1351 644 117 5 3 false false Fri Aug 22 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jun 03 09:55:15 -0700 2008 Mon Aug 25 08:57:30 -0700 2008 more...]]> 4 1 false false Thu Aug 14 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 22 09:19:35 -0700 2008 Thu Aug 28 06:12:36 -0700 2008
