FROM THE WRECKAGE was one of those books that presented the "perfect" couple and then gave them a horrible situation to overcome. Given how "perfect" they had been before the situation, I wasn't certain what was going to happen now that they faced this huge obstacle. It may have come at the last 1/4 of the book, but what came out of that was proof that love can overcome some pretty horrible odds. David and Gracie proved that and it made this an incredibly heartwarming story to read.
