The Fall

Brooke wants her old life back. Could the Lord have something better? Widowed science teacher Brooke Hoffman is relieved to get back home to her daughter after spending the past six months in hospital, but her plans to pick up her life where she left it are thwarted by the back pain that lingers after her traumatic accident. As Brooke wrestles with feeling betrayed by God, she's comforted by her next-door neighbor, Elsie, and the brother who came home when she needed him. Friendships form with Daniel's girlfriend, Rosemary, and her pastor's wife, Marie, and Brooke soon finds her new life filled with family, community - and the possibility of a second chance at love with Daniel's friend, Eddie. Yet despite the love and care around her, Brooke's physical recovery pales in comparison to the emotional scars left by the fall. Even though her broken bones have healed, crippling trauma and fear of the future remain. Can the Lord truly heal the wounds in her soul? If you enjoy uplifting Christian stories about renewed faith, overcoming challenges, and unexpected love, "The Fall" is the perfect read for you.
