Synopsis

Secrets are like pennies. Everybody\x27s got one, even the poorest among us.

<\/b>For generations, the Jensens have raised their families in the small Montana town of Moose Creek, where gossip spreads faster than the wind. Yet some secrets need to be told.

When twenty\-one\-year\-old Bea discovers she\x27s pregnant on the heels of her husband losing his job, she\x27s forced to admit she needs help and asks her dad for a place to stay. But past resentments keep her from telling him all that\x27s going on.

Mitch Jensen is thrilled to have a full house again, though he\x27s unimpressed with Bea\x27s decisions: dropping out of college, marrying so young\-\-and to an idealistic city kid, of all things. Mitch hopes to convince Bea to return to the path he\x27s always envisioned for her, but she\x27s changed since her mom died. And he refuses to admit how much he\x27s changed, too, especially now that he might be losing his mother as well.

Grandma June is good at spinning stories, but there\x27s one she\x27s never told. Now that her mind is starting to fade, her time to tell it is running out. But if she reveals the truth before her memories are gone forever, the Jensen family will never be the same.

<\/b>\x27Powner will be the next big star in Christian fiction.\x27\-\-Library Journal<\/i> starred review

"Powner will be the next big star in Christian fiction."--Library Journal starred review

"Powner delivers a powerful sophomore novel in which helping hands and faithful prayers are flickers of light that pierce the darkness of suffering. Fans of thoughtful contemporary fiction such as Susie Finkbeiner's Stories That Bind Us and Cynthia Ruchti's Facing the Dawn will want to add Powner to their lists."--Library Journal
