Description
It was a hot, Midwest summer evening in July 1987 when a random outing led them both to the exact same place at the exact same time. The attraction and connection seemed instant and overwhelming and before they knew it, this sixteen and seventeen year old would find themselves at a place where their lives would never be the same. Amy Jo Hawkins shares the very real and very raw story of this young couple (Luke and Macy) who at a young age, begin raising a family while desperately trying to find themselves along the way. Through marrying young, countless trials, addiction, chaos, abandonment and ultimately divorce, Luke and Macy defy all odds and discover the true meaning of love and forgiveness. With divorce as prevalent as it is today, it's virtually incomprehensible to grasp this truly remarkable story of how never losing hope can and does prove the heart's deepest desire of how "It Doesn't Have to be That Way."
