The Fragrance of Surrender

If You Love Emotional Christian Fiction, You Will Love This Faith-Building Novel Many Readers Say Changed Their Lives Forever

All too often, Gabriella finds herself dangling on the edge of a cliff torn between this life and one she doesn't understand. Her journey has been hard. First, her parents mysteriously left one night when she was a young child never to be seen again. She grew up with an uninvolved aunt who took the secrets that could have healed her heart to the grave. Then, the man she loved tragically died. Gabriella swore to protect herself from future pain by withdrawing from everyone—including the God her husband discovered before he died.

Sammy has watched his mom retreat into herself since his daddy died. But one day as he rode the school bus, he saw her standing so close to the edge of the cliff he feared she would fall over. At that moment, he promised his dad he would find the God he'd tried to tell him about before he died. Maybe this God could help his mom.  

But it won't be easy. Gabriella doesn't trust God and forbids Sammy to even say His name in the house. 

But Sammy can't ignore the calling he feels and has a life-changing encounter with God. Armed with this new spirit, he begins a work that changes lives all around the small fishing village they live in. As their two worlds collide in the sea-soaked village, something happens that forces Gabriella to choose between her fear and Sammy's life.

Will the God of her husband overcome the darkness of the day?
