Covenant is a contemporary, spiritually rooted coming-of-age novel that follows three young women whose individual journeys of longing, trauma, and healing converge through divine timing and future anointing.
Selah, an intuitive and spiritually sensitive only child, has recently become the caretaker of a grand Victorian manor near Forsyth Park in Savannah. As she grows older, repressed memories of sexual trauma begin to manifest in unexpected ways. In response, Selah learns to liberate herself from negative coping mechanisms but not before losing herself to a relationship sent to delay her destiny.
Sarahi, shaped by a turbulent upbringing and the loss of her immediate family, has built her life on discipline and endurance. She believes happiness must be earned-through academic pursuit, financial stability, and constant effort. Her strength, while admirable, has become both her armor and her prison, leaving her exhausted and quietly fearful that rest could cost her everything.
Sofia, a vibrant mess of contradictions, longs for freedom but struggles to distinguish between escape and true liberation. Her addiction to dopamine leads her to intense and emotionally charged situations that do everything but fill the ache that has plagued her since her glow-up.
Though the three women have lived near one another for years, they do not meet until their early twenties, when each arrives separately at Selah's Victorian home on Christmas Eve, drawn in by divine circumstances. What begins as chance proximity quickly deepens into a meaningful sisterhood marked by shared faith, vulnerability, and the growing realization that they are stepping into a calling far greater than themselves.Old coping mechanisms resurface with a demonic vengeance. Faith, once comforting, becomes complex and demanding. Healing does not arrive neatly-it disrupts, exposes, and reshapes them against their will.
