Description

"There's great hope where the road meets the sky - maybe even an answer. But this road leads home. Just home. I thought I'd finished writing that story years ago, but then yesterday's story happened - the one about the boy who cheats and the girl who leaves."Lu Sokolowski never planned to return to her small hometown of Dunlap's Creek, but it's the only place she can think of to go after her boyfriend cheats on her. Moving back in with her family lets her run away from her problems, but it also means suffering their attempts to reassemble her failed life, including arranging a job as the wedding beat writer at the local paper and setting her up with Jackson, the divorced pastor of her family's church. Unexpected success and friendships restore Lu to the family and faith she'd left behind. But when the small-town life Lu never intended shakes up, will she run again?Lu's story is a journey of a woman back to her family, her faith, and herself.It's about second chances and the unchosen circumstances that press the point of who we are and what we believe. Are we the sum of our successes and failures, or does our identity rest in a greater hope?
