Funny, candid, and searchingly self-aware, this essay collection tells the story of Chelsea Martin’s coming of age as an artist. We are with Chelsea as an 11-year-old atheist, trying to will an alien visitation to her neighborhood; fighting with her stepfather and grappling with a Tourette’s diagnosis as she becomes a teenager; falling under the sway of frenemies and crushes in high school; going into debt to afford what might be a meaningless education at an expensive art college.

Underqualified and overly-ambitious, Holly left her family and friends behind in Nebraska to search for that all-for-Jesus-or-nothing-at-all life. Escaping the depression that chased her following her father's untimely death, this young accountant-turned-adventurer discovered a deeper passion for her God while sharing the gospel in India and soothing abandoned babies in South Africa. God made sure that Holly also encountered Oscar. This handsome South African rugby player seemed to have everything Holly had been praying for in a husband except for the small detail that he didn't look like any of the other guys she'd dated before.

Samuel, a New York-based reporter, leaves the comfort of home to report on the war, where his focus changes from the men who fight to the women who heal. Sarah, a Southern healer, leaves the safety of her home to travel with nurses and use nature to heal. Meanwhile, Mack, a teenage girl, disguises herself as a boy to infiltrate Union camps. Mack befriends Sarah, and the two women begin a friendship - and deception - that will be carried throughout the war. When Samuel encounters Sarah on the battlefield, he realizes she is the childhood friend he has known for years.
