About THE COACH'S WIDOW: A Young Wife's Journey Through

A perfect marriage. A young husband with a budding career. A single phone call that stunned a newlywed wife and a small Arkansas community. At twenty-seven, Alexis Pacheco's life had finally molded itself into perfection ... until the call that ended it all and forced her to start over. Through Christ, Alexis and Jorre McMahan had overcome tumultous circumstances while they dated, leading Jorre to become a football coach. Bonded together by Christ, football, and their impassioned love, the pair married, and Alexis assumed her new identity as Coach Mac's wife. Three months after their wedding, in the midst of football season, Alexis's picturesque world shattered when Coach Mac collapsed and died on the field, surrounded by his players. Jorre's unexpected death at the age of twenty-six confronted Alexis with the unknowns of young widowhood and so much more--the tragedy of Coach Mac's death unearthed his painful secret. The hidden truth cracked Alexis's perception of reality and catapulted her into an angry pit of despair. There her faith wavered ... until she chose to trust the only one who could pull her out and into the light: Jesus.
