Lauren Tate can’t get over the death of her parents, no matter how tranquil she finds the beach where she’s house-sitting. She’s tired of wondering about the future. She’s tired of wondering why God abandoned her parents. She’s tired.
Jack Wheeler can’t get over the feeling that God sent him to teach in Pensacola for six months before he heads to the mission field for a short-term adventure. When he meets Lauren, he’s struck by the sadness in her eyes. There’s something about her that draws him. When he hears her story, he’s sure. Lauren needs him, and he’s got the answers that can change her life.
Lauren isn’t too sure she wants to be fixed by Jack. Why can’t he be friends without passing out advice? She certainly doesn’t need him shoving God down her throat. But no one ever loved Lauren the way Jack loves…with no thought for himself. Can God really be like that?
More than anything, Jack wants to romance Lauren away, but that wouldn’t heal her spirit. What he learns about sacrificial love might break his heart, if Lauren doesn’t find her way to God. The mission field is harsh and unforgiving. If Jack failed with Lauren, what’s to say he has anything to offer a people group so poor they can’t buy food? That is, if he lives to share. The local drug-runners don’t take kindly to missionaries.
When Jack disappears in the jungles of Honduras, Lauren has to face her fears all over again. Can she trust that God has blessings in store for her and Jack, or has He once again taken everything away from her?
For the first time in her life, Lauren is ready to let God truly be the very air she breathes.
