"The Moment Between is a heart-wrenching story, beautifully rendered by an exciting new author who shows the courage it takes to step out of the moment of 'what was' and 'is' and grasp hold of „what can be‟ through the hope and promise God offers. This is a novel that should not be missed."
Francine Rivers, best-selling author of Redeeming Love
"Nicole Baart's The Moment Between is an exquisite look at the angst- and love-filled relationship between sisters. Baart skillfully paints this picture with the tenderness and empathy of a master artist, creating a work that will not soon be forgotten. This book is a treasure that should not be missed."
Angela Hunt, best-selling author of The Face
"Haunting and evocative, The Moment Between is a stunning literary work. Baart captures beauty and madness alike in the finely wrought net of her immaculate prose, weaving a tale of the ties that bind as only a master storyteller can. The specters of her characters linger long after the covers are closed, impressed upon the mind, still moving the heart."
Tosca Lee, author of Demon: A Memoir
"The Moment Between is a stark, agonizingly beautiful treatise on family, human frailty, and suffocating regret. With breathtaking prose, an everywoman heroine, and a twisting journey, Nicole Baart unfolds hope in the darkest circumstances."
Mary DeMuth, author of Daisy Chain
"Beautiful, complex, and rich. The great mystery at the heart of The Moment Between is not what happened but why. Nicole Baart gracefully peels back the layers to examine sibling love, brokenness, and healing that comes through redemption."
Travis Thrasher, author of Ghostwriter
"A story about the emotional communion of two sisters that is as rich and complex as fine red wine. Baart‟s story of a tragedy and one woman‟s yearning for atonement, for answers, and for peace, is both gritty and lyrical. Leavened by tenderness, it plumbs troubling questions of how much responsibility we bear to control our minds and actions, the paradoxical pitfalls that can come from harnessing both too tightly, and the mysterious grace of faith."
Lisa McKay, author of My Hands Came Away Red
"Even though Abigail is entirely certain for whom she is searching, she is tragically unsure of what it is she wants or needs to find. The blind devotion of that quest is mesmerizing, ushering us along effortlessly in Nicole Baart‟s new novel, The Moment Between. Meanwhile, as it has in all her work, Baart‟s elegant prose becomes a lyric melody, its own kind of blessing to story and reader."
James Calvin Schaap, author of Romey's Place
