Nila has always been called the sunshine in the lives of those she loves. Until she was adopted by Luke Smallbone when she was nine, she was in the foster care system for the only part of her life that she remembered, but she was okay with that. She'd always been given loving, caring foster families, and now, at fifteen, she has the best forever home she could ask for, and is a cheerful-as-ever as a daughter, older sister, niece, and friend. But then, seemingly out of nowhere, she starts having nightmares, and later discovers that they're of events she never remembered from her early childhood. With the words and deeds of her true biological parents echoing in her mind, she starts to struggle in ways she wouldn't have dreamed possible. But she's too scared, too used to being the brightest light in the room, to come forward about what she's dealing with to her dad, or her uncle, who are both growing more concerned by the day.
Finally, everything falls and Nila decides to end her own life. A close save by Joel spares it, but it seems that she's only getting worse, now not only dealing with what she always was, but also a load of shame larger than herself. And now, Luke and Joel are in a desperate struggle for the life of the girl they love so much, to show her that she's found the place where she belongs, where there are no more broken lullabies.

Amber Thomas wasn't the kind of orphan foster parents would look at twice. She was fifteen, she had depression, she cut herself, and had attempted suicide multiple times. No one even cared she existed, except for Katelyn, Conor, and Hanna, her only friends. One night at a concert, she met Joel and Luke Smallbone, from For King and Country, and Joel and his wife, Moriah, decided to foster her after hearing her story. Six weeks later, after some crazy drama to finalize the adoption, their whole world collapses with two sentences. Even when everything comes crashing down around her, Amber struggles to find God in what is happening. And then, one song that her adoptive father and uncle wrote changes everything she thought about how God helps her. And she learns that, even when life is nowhere near understandable, God has never left our side.
