CONTENT WARNING: While this book is Christian in theme, it contains strong sexual content and language.

Marriage. No one ever said it would be easy, and Lucas is about to find out just how hard it can be. Will the raw love he has for his wife keep him from the unthinkable or will he have to say goodbye to everything he ever wanted? Doubt, temptation, the world’s evil and absence can u-turn any relationship, but can Lucas and Faith’s commitment to God and their vows bring them full circle?

“360 Degrees” is a very edgy Christian Fiction novel about dealing with disappointments, temptations, and making the choice to love in terribly difficult circumstances.

While it is a stand alone book, it is also a follow up to “30 Below” and “Above 60” making it the third installment in the “Degrees of Discernment" series which follows Faith and Lucas Anderson through other life issues that cause their moral temperature to rise and fall.

5.0 out of 5 stars A little Faith, Hope, and Love can go a long way

I actually made myself wait a solid month after reading the first two books, before I picked this one up.
I wasn't sure I was ready for whatever lesson was in store.
But now... I've gone up and down this roller coaster ride, I've loved the characters, hated them, and had my heart broken for them.
I don't know how Wendy does it, but she gave me an escape from my broken little world, and has shown me a place where a little fait, hope, and love, goes a long way.

This story continues the love of Faith and Lucas. This book was full of ups and downs of emotions. I could not put this book down. I wanted to know more about the disease and all the issues surrounding it. The struggles that Faith and Lucas go through are very emotional but love all the Christian values in this book. Can't wait to see what happens in the future.

Once I picked up 360 Degrees, I couldn't put it down. Sometimes love chooses us. Sometimes we choose love. Fabulous insight into the challenges of conflict and forgiveness and the choice we make to fight for the sanctity of marriage. Nicely done Wendy Oleston!

5.0 out of 5 stars I absolutely loved this book Its Christian Fiction but it's Christian Fiction ...
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2015
I absolutely loved this book Its Christian Fiction but it's Christian Fiction like I've never read before Don't let the the Christian Fiction turn you off to it Its got a little bit of everything in it and I guarantee you won't be disappointed It can also be read as a standalone She does such a great job with the beginning of the book that you don't feel like your missing anything if you've not read 30 Below and Above 60 That said though I would suggest you read the other two books which are about Faith and Lucas and their journey from dating to marriage.

I love Lucas and Faith and I loved this book so very much Its a book that you will read and not be able to forget Its been a few weeks since I read it and I still think about it every day. You get to see more into Lucas and Faiths relationship and how they apply God principles to their everyday life's This book and time period is huge for them and their marriage I laughed and cried.Had to close the book and take a breath it got so intense I rooted and cheered so hard for them I was angry at times and even would have throat punched some people had it been real life and I'd been there That is the sign of a good book A you don't want to miss a single word read I'm not kidding when I say I still think about this book

Wendy has written a book with characters that you feel like you know so well they are your best friends Her words are absolutely beautiful and you really feel them and the things going on in the book I love there imperfect and say bad words and they are a really really hot couple It's a don't miss read that your going to love as much as I did and have on your mind for a while I can not wait for more books from Wendy She is a automatic one click Author for me

5.0 out of 5 stars The Love story of the year!
Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2015
I LOVED this book! I have grown to LOVE Faith and Lucas. They are by far the strongest couple I've read. They have been through so much in the last 2 books that my heart broke for them as they were, yet again, faced with the seemingly impossible task of overcoming another obstacle in their relationship. I am trying really hard not to include spoiler moments, but I do remember thinking...'What would I do?' many times throughout this book. I am in awe that there are moments in life that make you question your faith and the ability to keep going forward after being to hell and back, but when you put your faith in His hands, the outcome can be so much different than you see. Faith and Lucas are forced to face real problems and obstacles that threaten to tear their life apart, but there is always faith. This book was written as the third installment to the Degrees Series but also can be read as a standalone. I would recommend that you read the first 2 books so you can fall in love with Lucas and Faith as I have, but Wendy does a fantastic job of recapping the previous books without the need to skim the pages to get to the new stuff.
I would recommend this book to anyone in a relationship. I guarantee that you will relate to at least one moment in the life of Lucas and Faith, and maybe question your own decisions. Extremely well written and message to subtly delivered.

I'm in love with this couple; they amaze. Lucas and Faith are truly a couple who have been through hell, but when they choose to rely on God and let go of bitterness healing takes place.

Thisis a story that is not for the faint of heart, it deals with real issues and situations, but you learn that hope prevails through it all. You will also understand that it is vital to stay connected to your help(Jesus), because He will help you face difficult times and direct you in your decision making. The devil is prowling around seeking those he can devour and he almost destroyed this couple, but thank God for faith, hope, love , forgiveness and reconciliation. I urge everyone to get a copy, read it with your spouse and read it with your bookclub, it will bless your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Even if you don't like Christian Fiction -- Read this book!
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2015
Wendy did it again! I don't read Christian Fiction -- ever! And yet I've made it through three of her books with ease. Her book is well written and thought provoking. She did a wonderful job of challenging her characters and making them grow stronger together. Lucas and Faith are the true meaning of soul-mates. They're bond together in a way that is unlike most novels.

I won't ruin anything, but I will say: Read this Book! You will most definitely enjoy it. It was one of those stay up until 3 in the morning just so you can finish it. You won't be disappointed, but you just may be surprised at this Christian Fiction novel.

Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2015
I loved it. While it is Christian themed it is edgy and full of real life situations. I love Lucas and Faith and felt so much for them during the course of this book. The things that Faith has to endure are heartbreaking to say the least, and the way that Lucas deals with them made me want to throttle him on more than one occasion. I finished the book late at night and they were the first thing I thought about the next morning. Quite an impact.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gritty and Real and Tender.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 10, 2015

Rarely do you find a real, gritty, romance based within a marriage where real people are struggling with real issues. Far less do you find an author who is prepared to dive in and be authentic with people living out lives of faith. Of course we know that folk in our churches are not immune to lust, greed, lies etc., but it seems that in most novels the authors pretend that men and women of faith always do the right thing, even when struggling with that faith. Ms Oleston has the courage to write about Christians who do fall down and write in a way that is totally engaging. While Lucas' wife lies in a coma, month after month, Lucas really struggles with his faith, really struggles with fidelity. I was drawn into that struggle with him. I wanted to smack some sense into him, I wanted to hold his hand. When Faith emerged from the coma and she and Lucas are trying to rebuild their marriage I wanted to hold her hand and sometimes I wanted to smack her too (although not quite as hard as Lucas). But this is not just a book for Christians. Okay - so if you are a hard-line atheist you might not be drawn to these characters, but Ms Oleston rarely uses her writing to proselytise (I'd like to say never, but as I share her obvious faith I might just not have noticed), and mostly these are just normal people struggling to live out normal lives doing what's right. And we all want to that, right? Whatever our beliefs. In short I really, really enjoyed this book, and eagerly look forward to the next one.
