Faith & Forgiveness

She rushed to her feet, tears pooling in her eyes, and he drank it in - the flush of her cheeks, her clenched fists, her trembling lip. He forced himself to not look away.

This once, Nick, this one time see what you've done.

With a sob, she fled the room, and his heart ripped out of his chest.

-----

Nick Sawyer's life is spinning out of control. Consumed by hatred for his father, he makes a fateful decision - he'll live life on his own terms. They don't need him anyway. Yet, running away from his problems takes him to a place where dying would be so much easier.

Grace Devoe stopped trying to leave home when her mother passed and took refuge with her uncle, a good man who's given up his call to the church to take on her care. She's happy there, as long as she doesn't have to ever step outside.

Nick's appearance on the doorstep, barely alive, changes the future. As their feelings for each other grow, her reluctance to move on and his unwillingness to let go might prove too much for their fragile relationship. Unless they can open their hearts, take a step of faith, and accept heaven's forgiveness.
