Operation: Integrity

Sam Elsner is the quiet type, especially when someone hurts him. He caught the love of his life with another man. He isn't the type to face her. If he did, he might get angry which isn't his way. So he let her go, but he's never forgotten her. Now she's at Wayside but it's not for second-chances. She's there as a patient. Sam knows that only space and care is going to bring Kelly back from all the pain she's endured. When they dig carefully into their past, secrets come to light that might blow Kelly's kidnapping case wide open, and put a target on Sam's back. But he won't let anyone touch her again. Kelly Chambers only wants a normal life, but that seems way outside God's plan. She committed her life to Jesus in her darkest moment, but she feels so separated from humanity that she can't believe for a moment that He cares about her. As Sam tries to gently peel back the layers of distrust and pain, Kelly wants to escape the pain of healing. But when her captor threatens the man she loved, can she find the strength to accept the new life Jesus and Wayside offers, or will she sink back into the belief that nothing and no one can save her?
