Grace Under Fire

In Grace Under Fire, author Charlotte Russell Johnson coins the fourth installment in her series of motivational text. Her writing evolves emotionally, as she continues to share the intimate and personal events in her life. Readers are able to view her innermost secrets and emotions. The reader is seduced by the lust of the characters for love and money, while secretly retaining a desire to see their ultimate redemption.

They say that you should never burn the bridge that has brought you through, but at what point is the bridge a safety hazard? If it is true when one door closes another opens, what should you do when the wind continues to open and shut both doors simultaneously?
