Sarah just won a heartbreaking victory
Sarah's walk to her car took seemingly forever even though it was only a few steps from the door of the coffee shop. She just finished one of the most difficult conversations of her life. One that sent the man of her dreams into the arms of another woman and left her alone... again.
When Sarah Newsome first met Jake she was certain she just met the most handsome and compassionate man on God's green earth. The more she got to know him the more sure she was of it. Meeting Jake brought a brightness to Sarah's otherwise rather dull existence.
There was only one problem. Two actually. Jake barely noticed her as something other than a coworker and Jennifer Lawson, the competition, was just too much for Sarah to overcome. So much for the fairy tale relationship with Jake Jennings.
Sarah had to face the fact that Jake's brightness didn't shine in her direction. Coming to the realization that Jake was not God's man for her was a heartbreaking victory in Sarah's life.
As she sat in her car trying to muster enough energy to go to her lonely apartment for another evening by herself she said a prayer that was as familiar to her as the childhood teddy bear ensconced among the pillows on her bed.
Father, you know my needs better than I know them myself. I've prayed for so long to meet my soul mate, the man you have chosen to be with me. I just feel so... lonely and empty at times. You know what I've been through. Give me the strength to be calm and trust you. Guide me in a path that leads me to a more full and meaningful life that I can live for your glory.
I really thought Jake was the one, but I know now that he's not. Please bless Jake and Jen.

Author's Note
I'm writing from experience as a hospice chaplain and a hopeless romantic. I hope you fall in love with the story of Sarah and Michael. It's a deeply emotional and spiritual journey that I know will touch your heart and your soul. While this is a Christian romance novel and romantic religious fiction, this book deals with intense and realistic emotional themes of recovery from physical and emotional abuse and the aftermath of serious injury. I hope my readers who have experienced these difficult circumstances will find this story healing and cathartic.
There will be future stories about Sarah, Michael, Jen and Jake as well as other wonderful people from Sunset, Texas. I'm committed to bringing you high quality contemporary Christian romance ebooks under $3.99.
