Crossroads are an inevitable part of life. But how do you navigate them when your life is not your own? At 22-years-old, Michelle Onuorah was a bestselling author, former runway model, and recent college graduate with the world at her fingertips...Or so she thought.In a matter of weeks which turned into months...and eventually most of her twenties, the God of the universe systematically revealed that He was also the God of her life - and she was not. With breathtaking candor, razor sharp humor, and bold vulnerability, Michelle shares the ten key lessons she's learned about God, life and understanding both in the midst of ceaseless transitions. In her words, "This book is for those of you who believed with all your heart that you would end up in one place and somehow, despite following God - or maybe even because of it - ended up on a completely different path. This is for those of you who, though you love God, sometimes wonder who He even is. This is for those of you who choose to believe He's still good." This book is for you.**Please note that there are instances of profanity and unapologetic themes of spirituality within this work. Reader discretion is advised.**

It's a simple personal ad: "I am seeking a friend for the end of the world..." Eleven little words that change Beatrice's life irrevocably. Because they lead her to Jacob Grace, an unpredictable writer looking for something he can't name.

From hole-in-the-wall record stores to late night phone calls, together, Beatrice and Jacob transcend the loneliness of their lives. But dark realities and secrets soon rise to the surface, as does Beatrice's fear of an inescapable fate.
