This bestselling former Palisades release is book five in the new
Glenbrooke series by award-winning author Robin Jones Gunn. Shelly
Graham has moved home to Glenbrooke, where she's flooded with memories
of her high school sweetheart, who took off for Europe after they broke
up. But when Shelly travels to Germany, she suddenly runs into the
former boyfriend who has filled her thoughts. Learning that Jonathan is
engaged, Shelly hides her feelings for him. After returning home,
however, she must face these feelings, especially after her path crosses
Jonathan's yet again. Only this time, if they can find the strength to
be honest, they just might discover what God has in store.She remembers their childhood with longing their parting with regret…
Coming
home wasn’t supposed to feel this way. After five years as a flight
attendant, Shelly is home again, in a house alive with happy memories.
Yet she feels strangely lost. Without direction. Alone.
Where
is Jonathan Renrield when she needs him? Jonathan, her best friend
nearly all her life, her first and only love. Shelly hadn’t meant to
hurt him when she left him behind to chase her dreams. And she misses
him more than she’s ever admitted. When they unexpectedly meet in
Germany , Shelly manages to hide her feelings from Jonathan—and his
fiancée. But she can no longer hide them from herself. Will she ever be
ready to tell Jonathan the truth? Will she have the chance?
Not
until a business trip takes her to charming Glenbrooke , Oregon does
Shelly finally understand: only the truth can set her free. But is it
too late for her and Jonathan?
Oftentimes, we as individuals do not see that God has His best in front of us. We need to follow our plans and so as we stray from God's path, God lets things happen to us that will force us to get onto the right path, and in Shelly's case, pain was the only way that could get her back onto the path.
