"A chipped teacup, a candelabra with no candles, a broken clock, a wardrobe with a missing handle, a feather duster with missing feathers, and a hideous beast. These are Christ's Rejects."
***
Brooding and cynical Grayson Bradford, town outcast and orphan, is still reeling from a loss five years ago, ready to give up on life, until an unexpected resident comes to town.
Ariel Michaels is a lively 17-year-old girl who is the daughter of a controversial pastor and an aspiring writer. She's moving to Sunnyvale, California, a rundown city known for its nasty residents and stray dogs. Despite the challenges she expects to face, Ariel is determined to focus on God, school, and spreading the message of love to everyone she meets.
She and her family move into Grayson's group home, and an unlikely friendship blossoms amidst the darkness of his life. As she navigates the uncertainties of life with Grayson, she teaches him about God and the joy that life can bring. Together, they learn that God doesn't always guide His children on the path they expect and embraces the rejected close to His heart.
