Just a Breath Away

After two failed marriages, James Martin began to believe his love life would never be the one he envisioned. But on August 13, 1990, a new employee was hired at his work, Deborah, and his whole world changed.

Just a Breath Away is the retelling of James and Debbie’s love story and all the trials they overcame to build a beautiful life together. From overcoming past trauma to family to all the moments God set a predestined course in their lives, James beautifully recounts his memories of his beloved wife and the incredible impact she had on everyone around her.
