“Maybe it’s better that I go.” Jake’s blue eyes clouded.
Callie’s heart twisted. Jake wasn’t only talking about a few days. He was also thinking about leaving for good. What she’d wanted from the beginning. Only now she wasn’t sure she wanted him to go.
For Maisie’s sake, of course.
He crouched beside his daughter on the rug. “Goodbye, Maisie.” He cleared his throat. “Goodbye, BooWoo.”
Maisie’s lashes flickered, but she said nothing.
Slowly, he rose. “This is goodbye, then.” He slung the strap of the duffel bag over his shoulder.
Callie followed him into the hall.
“I’ll be back.” He paused at the front door. “A day...” He shrugged. “No more than two.”
She touched his arm. “Take care of yourself.”
Jake’s gaze flitted toward the living room. “Maisie won’t miss me.”
Callie ached to make things right between father and daughter, but she didn’t know how.
“I’ll miss you, Jake.” She flushed. “I—I mean, the orchard won’t be the same without you, Jake.”
Welcome to Truelove, North Carolina—Where True Love Awaits. This new romantic series is set in the breathtakingly lovely Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.
Though the course of true love doesn’t always run smooth, never fear. The Truelove matchmakers are there to make sure everyone finds their true happily-ever-after.
The heart of this story is about a man searching for someplace to belong. He’s seeking love and purpose. He’s searching for home. This story is also about trusting God. With the good. With the bad. With everything.
Home. What images does that word create in your mind? For some, the memories are good. For others, memories of home are extremely painful.
But I believe the longing for home is at the core of who we are as humans.
As Jake discovers at Apple Valley Farm, no matter how tragic the past or present, God has a place of belonging for each of us. And I believe no matter where you’ve been, no matter where you are right now, no matter what you’ve done—that God can take what is broken and make it into something beautiful. In fact, I think He delights in bringing beauty out of brokenness.
Why did I write this story? Because it is my prayer that no matter where you’ve been, no matter where you are right now, no matter what you’ve done—that you will ultimately find in Him your home. The happily-ever-after for which you were truly made.
I hope
