Summer In Shady Springs

The last place Madeleine Mullins wants to be is back in Shady Springs, Arkansas-the town where her whole world fell apart. But when her beloved Aunt Clara begs her for help, Madeleine reluctantly takes a job painting a mural at her aunt's church. Her plan is to finish quickly and leave her bad memories behind. But the more time she spends with the handsome youth minister and the more she reads her Bible, the more she wonders if she has been wrong about God and the Church all along.

Three years out of college and A.J. Young still doesn't know what he wants to be when he grows up. He knows he wants to settle down and build a family but hasn't found the wife he'd like to share his life with. Then Madeleine comes to town. Their friendship buds quickly, although it can never be anything more as long as she isn't a Christian.

An undeniable attraction grows between A.J. and Madeleine, but she's only in town for a few weeks, and he can't date someone who doesn't share his beliefs. How can Madeleine help A.J. discover a passion for the career he's always wanted? And how can A.J. convince Madeleine to give God and Shady Springs a second chance?
