A Life to Live
Mia travels to Nottingham carrying grief, private history, and little expectation that the trip will reconnect her with the boy she once loved. Caleb has long regretted how he ended their high-school relationship and sees their chance encounter as an opportunity to repair the harm he caused. His desire for forgiveness is tested when Mia reveals choices and losses from the intervening years that she fears he cannot accept. Reflective and faith-centered, this early Christian romance suits readers who enjoy travel settings, reunited sweethearts, mutual repentance, and stories where receiving grace proves as difficult as asking for it.
