Hearts Made New

When grief shatters the heart, only grace can rebuild it. After losing both her husband and child, Ella James Brooks has mastered the art of pretending she's fine. Her small-town coffee shop is full of laughter, pastries, and cheerful music—but behind the counter lives a woman whose faith has gone quiet. What she once believed about God's goodness feels distant, almost impossible to grasp. Then Liam Carter walks into her life—a world-class cyclist nursing a broken heart of his own. Recovering from a shattered engagement and trying to rebuild his life, Liam isn't looking for love or redemption. Yet something about Ella's quiet strength draws him in, awakening questions about faith, forgiveness, and the God he's long ignored. As their paths intertwine, both must face the truth they've been avoiding: healing doesn't erase the past—it transforms it. They discover that even the most wounded hearts can be made new when surrendered to Jesus, who restores everything. Hearts Made New is a clean, faith-filled Christian romance about second chances, emotional healing, and rediscovering hope after loss. With heartfelt dialogue, spiritual depth, and a powerful message of redemption, this story reminds us that no life is beyond God's reach—and no heart too broken for His love to restore.
