Description
“An emotionally compelling story” (Library Journal) about the devastation secrets can unleash on a family and the power of grace to bring second chances.Leota’s garden was once a place of beauty, where flowers bloomed and hope thrived. It was her refuge from the deep wounds inflicted by a devastating war, her sanctuary where she knelt before a loving God and prayed for the children who couldn’t understand her silent sacrifices.Now a widow, eighty-four-year-old Leota Reinhardt is alone, her beloved garden in ruins. All her efforts to reconcile with her adult children have been fruitless, and she voices her despair to a loving Father, her only friend.Then God brings a wind of change through unlikely means: one, a college student with an agenda all his own who thinks he has all the answers; the other, a granddaughter Leota never hoped to know. But can the devastation wrought by keeping painful family secrets be repaired before she runs out of time?A Christian contemporary novel from the New York Times bestselling author of Redeeming Love and The MasterpieceWeaves together themes of faith, forgiveness, and redemptionIncludes discussion questions for book clubs“Rivers is a master gardener . . . using poignant humor and bittersweet revelation to open hearts to reconciliation.”—Romantic TimesAlso available in The Francine Rivers Contemporary Collection (e-book only).
