Jace Gruber, the hero of At Home with Daffodils, is back in town,
but the adolescent voice is now deep and full of authority, and his broad
shoulders and protective stance make him a handsome—and imposing—figure.
For
years Jace ignored his own dreams, running from the reputation put upon the
family by his absent, drunken father. He kept his head down, provided for his
mom and sister, and tried to live out the legacy of the words his childhood
sweetheart spoke over him. Now that his
mother is gone and his sister is married, he braves the censure of Rock City,
the small town where he lived when his father began drinking. He’d be better
off to go somewhere where nobody knew him, and he could start fresh, but he’ll
never be able to move on until he knows if Dilly is still waiting for him.
Will
Jace ever be truly at home with daffodils? You can find out by reading my story
in A Bouquet of Brides, where you meet
seven American women who were named for various flowers but struggle to bloom
where God planted them. Watch how love helps them grow to their full potential.
To
celebrate the release of A Bouquet of Brides, I’m giving away a copy of the
book. Enter the drawing by signing-up for my newsletter or leaving a comment on my blog during the month of January (USA readers
only). Check out my website, where I have free resources and
information about the Free to Flourish writing and speaking ministry.
