Finding Hope

Two stories in one book. Finding Hope is a Christian romance novel centered on the redemptive love of Jesus Christ. No matter how dark the night may feel, God knows exactly where you are. He hears your cries, and you can trust He has a plan to reach you with His righteous right hand.

In this powerful narrative, the author masterfully weaves together two timelines-one set in the 1940s and the other in the present day-unfolding the unfortunate generational curse of a Black American family from Mississippi. What emerges is a tantalizing tale of a long-standing curse, enduring love, family drama, and deep mystery, all threaded together by God's unwavering pursuit of His children.

In the heart of this novel, we meet two unsuspecting characters, each completely unaware of God's grand design for their lives. Elise Joy Jones, abused as a child, has spent years battling mental instability, body insecurities, and a deeply rooted sense of unworthiness. Elise trudges through a murky sea of emotional damage to emerge triumphantly. In spite of all her achievements, she still feels unworthy of love. So unworthy, she never allows herself to hope for it.

Stepping out on faith in search of a new beginning, Samuel MaCoy-a young Black aspiring NICU doctor-moves to New York. He has chosen solitude as his closest companion, convinced he cannot trust himself to discern the difference between good and bad women. He's plagued by a recurring dream of a woman in an emerald green dress. Oddly, he feels compelled-instructed-to pray for her. The very idea seems ridiculous. After all, she's nothing more than a figment of his imagination...

Or is she?
