Soon the Dawn

When God’s plan collides with a woman’s single-minded will, lives change—if she’ll let them.

Ella thought adopting five daughters only a month after her wedding would be difficult.  Sixteen years later, letting go of her eldest is even harder. As Amaryllis prepares to spread her wings upon college graduation, Ella runs headlong into questions she can’t answer.

If Amaryllis chooses to make a life in faraway Denver, can Ella trust the Lord to keep her safe? Will Ella’s mother-in-law’s high society friends puff up Amaryllis until she’s blinded to what’s important? Will Amaryllis lose her grip on her faith, upbringing, and goals?   

When everything crumbles around her, Ella must decide where she’ll place her trust—in her own capable hands or in the Lord’s sovereign plan. But what will that decision require of her?
