Delilah Morrissey has always wanted to be a mother, but when she becomes a young widow, that dream now seems farther away than ever. Unable to continue to live alone in Chicago, her only option is to accept her sister's offer to move in with her family back in West Virginia. Will Delilah have the faith to pursue a new dream--even if it means giving up the old?

In this charming novella, debut novelist Sarah Loudin Thomas introduces readers to Wise, West Virginia--a small town nestled in an Appalachian valley where the everyday miracles of life and faith play out in stories of healing, hope, and love.

Chapter 4 (view spoiler)[If he doesn't think he can father children, why was he wondering if she was still young enough to bear them? (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Chapter 9 (view spoiler)[Ugh, Delilah trying to get Susanne and Robert together is comical because you just know it's going to be her and Robert together at the end. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

Chapter 10 (view spoiler)[I don't like that Susanne is living with Joe before her divorce is final, also she seems really quick to give up on her husband. I imagine he was fighting in the war, so I wouldn't be surprised if he suddenly shows up in Wise. (hide spoiler)]

Ending (view spoiler)[I thought this was a good setup for the series, it definitely made me interested in reading the first book in the series.

Let me know if that's something you'd be interested in BR (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[
Yeah, I know. And if he doesn't think he can have them, why did he desire a woman who wanted kids? I found that odd. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I liked this book, but I don't plan on reading book one anytime soon. If you want to, I wouldn't wait for me. :) (hide spoiler)]
