Faith struggles with her fiancé's revelation that he paid to abort a child he fathered his senior year of high school. Her belief system labels abortion as murder. Her dreams include a virginal marital bed. Can she offer forgiveness and trust to someone who shattered her dream and fostered an abortion?

Aaron chooses to reveal his past certain that God wants to use his mistake to help others. As he grapples with the possibility of losing Faith, he must also face Kyra, the girl from his past. He believed the Biblical injunction "the truth will set you free," but he hadn't contemplated freedom without Faith.

Her mother bequeaths Faith a journal that chronicles the marriage of Faith's parents, Sydney and David Lander. The family secrets revealed offer a path to forgiveness, if Faith can accept that every relationship must conquer hidden obstacles. The rose earrings her father gave her mother on their wedding day become a symbol of unconditional love.

27 parts Complete
Sixteen-year-old "model Christian" LeAnna Daniels is rooted in God's Word. She knows she's His Child. There's nothing she can't handle with His help. She knows every rule there is to know in the Bible. She knows exactly how to witness. Or so she thinks. Then her family takes in Rita, a wild, reckless fifteen-year-old who was orphaned and placed in foster care at the age of seven. Rita tests LeAnna in ways she never thought God would test her in. When Rita makes a terrible decision and pays the consequences, all LeAnna wants to do is scream at her, and she doesn't understand why. It's a lesson she never thought she would ever need. It's a lesson on how to love someone. Fifteen-year-old "juvenile delinquent" Rita MacKenzie is mad at the world. It's not hard to see why. A fire killed her parents when she was seven, she was separated from her siblings, and a lifetime of trauma and abuse follows her. Then she's sent to what the judge calls her last shot before shes shipped to juvie. And possibly her last chance at a family. No one wants a teenager, after all. She hates it. Strict parents and a foster sister who's constantly trying to shove religion down her throat might just be the last straw for her. But just as she begins to learn that their love- and God's love- has no strings attached, a terrible mistake has her questioning everything, especially God's love. It's a lesson Rita's been neglecting for years. It's a lesson on how to accept love, especially when you know you don't deserve it.

Our Bridal ShopEvery family has its secrets, and the March family is no exception. 
 For the March sisters, Match Made in Devon, the bridal shop opened and run by their parents, was a real-world representation of what true love was all about. But for eldest sister Alexandra that kind of perfection has always seemed unreachable. 
 Alex has spent over fifteen years in Boston, building up an impenetrable shell of confidence and taking control over her own destiny. If there's anything missing from her life, it isn't important anyway. But with her mother's unexpected death Alex is forced to leave her life in the big city behind and return to her hometown of Devon...and a past she's been running from for years. 
 As the March sisters try to salvage the bridal shop their parents loved, Alex is forced to confront her painful past and the real reason she left Devon so many years ago...including childhood sweetheart Jonah Dufort. 
 Jonah represents everything Alex has tried to forget and conceal. But sometimes secrets demand to be revealed, and when the past returns again in the form of a long-lost sister, it's a shocking reminder to Alex that even a perfect marriage can have something to hide. 
 With her world falling apart around her, Alex loses control of the perfect life she has built for herself. Now, the only thing that Alex can be certain of is that things will never be the same. 
 Bound by fate, three sisters will have to redefine the meaning of family and discover the raw power of forgiveness and love.
