Julia can’t wait for her life to begin. After her mother leaves
when Julia is nine years old, she’s raised by an unassuming, gentle
father and a saintly, matriarchal grandmother until her father dies just
as Julia is becoming a young adult.
After the leaves fall... it's not over--everything is just waiting for spring.
On the cusp of womanhood, Julia feels jaded by her circumstances and
longs for a new identity. College seems like the perfect place to start
over. But when Julia makes a mistake that will change her life forever,
she returns to her grandmother’s farm, defeated and convinced of her own
worthlessness. Only through the gentle prodding of her loving
grandmother does Julia begin to accept the imprint her childhood has
left on her life and look for hope in a loving God who longs to make all
things new.
Beautifully written... This book will touch your heart. -Angela Hunt, best-selling author
