Love's True Measure - Paperback

by Lori Dejong (Author)

A guilt-ridden woman with everything to gain, a self-made man with everything to lose, and a Father who desires to show them their true measure is more than they could ever imagine.

Shannon Trent has dedicated her life to ministering to teens, even as she hides secrets that haunt her past. Born into privilege but starved of unconditional love and acceptance, she's built a simpler life away from the expectations of her influential family. Shannon is content on her own, believing that to open her heart would mean unearthing her deepest shame. But when her charming neighbor stirs feelings she's never allowed herself to entertain, his lack of faith provides the perfect excuse to keep her distance.

Hunter Kavanaugh has spent years chasing his dream of becoming the youngest partner at his prestigious Fort Worth law firm. But when his mother's sudden death leaves him the sole guardian of his teenage sister, his carefully curated world begins to crumble. Struggling with grief, anger at God, and the demands of his career, Hunter is surprised when Shannon's unwavering faith begins to resonate with him-and her ability to connect with his sister draws him closer.

As Hunter and Shannon navigate their growing bond, unexpected challenges force them to confront their fears and priorities. Both must either choose to trust God's plan is far greater than their own, or risk losing the love of a lifetime.
