Tides That Turn (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781524697563)

Based in Downtown Detroit, two unlikely characters forge an unforgettable friendship that sparks change and hope deep within their hearts, ultimately changing their lives in remarkable ways.

Matthew Stance is a dispirited, lonely soul wandering the earth simply because his heart still beats and his blood still flows. All he wants is to feel something again, to be his once-vibrant, energetic self. But heartache and loneliness are the only entities filling his life. The more Matthew tries to change for positivity, the deeper he sinks into depression's claws.

Charles is a tenacious homeless man who fights to stay alive. When he's not rummaging for food and a good place to sleep, he's reminiscing about his deceased wife, Elizabeth, and how his life once was. Somewhere amid his shattered dreams resides a glimmer of faith waiting to be rekindled.

And then a random bench near the sparkling Detroit River draws these two opposites together. What starts off as a fiery encounter quickly transforms into a beautiful friendship. A friendship that finally inspires Matthew and Charles to strive for the changes and lives they desire.
