When life throws you a curveball, sometimes faith is the only way to swing.
Evelyn Green has always played it safe, editing her life like a story she can control. But this Christmas, God is calling her into something deeper. Between Naomi's sparkling engagement, Jordan's unspoken feelings, and the possibility that his dreams may carry him away from New York, Evelyn's heart is pulled in directions she never expected.
When she crosses paths with Lucas Rivera, a Bible study leader whose quiet strength challenges her doubts, Evelyn begins to realize that faith isn't about perfect answers-it's about surrender. With two very different relationships shaping her future, she must decide what-and who-she's truly willing to trust.
As snow falls over the city and holiday lights glow, Evelyn is faced with her hardest choice yet: cling to the safety she knows, or step boldly into the unknown with God leading the way.
Full of warmth, faith, and the magic of Christmas, The Curve Ball is a heartfelt young adult romance about forgiveness, courage, and discovering that love-God's love most of all-arrives right on time.

Twenty-four days. That's how long it took me to fall in love. Pretty impressive, since for the first twenty-three days all I had to fall in love with were little presents slipped into my locker. [#81 teen fiction / #1 holidays] NOTE - I wrote this book at 14 so the characters are 15-16 year olds. This is your warning so you don't have to be surprised/disappointed when their ages are mentioned! Thanks!Complete
