The Dream

Sometimes love is letting go. Sometimes it is making all your dreams come true. Kristen Williams has lost everything. A cooking empire. Her reputation. Her dream decimated. The IRS has taken everything. Except her soul. And her personal relationship with God. With only a few thousand dollars to her name, she returns to her hometown of Oakley Springs, Maryland. Pulled there by a voice in her head. But is it Divine Guidance? Or a cruel twist of fate? Because she finds Alec Daniels there. Her one true love. And like a Good Samaritan, he is offering her a place to live. A job. A chance to start over. This man who'd taken her heart and crushed it. Really, God? This is your plan for me? Alec Daniels has returned to his hometown with his three kids in tow. He survived two tours of duty overseas. Lived when others hadn't. Was this God's plan for him? To be alone? Overworked? Running full-out with his faith on empty? He's desperate. He needs help. Or maybe just a better answer to his prayers. Never did he expect that answer to come in the form of Kristin Williams. His greatest joy. And deepest regret. The only woman he ever truly loved. And hurt. Badly. Much as he wants to pick up where they left off, the answer to his prayer isn't the easy sell she used to be, leaving Alec to make the hardest decision of his life. Can he save his dinner and give Kristen back her dream? Or love her enough to let her go?
