Truman Miller hasn’t been dealt the best hand in life. His mother is never around, and with her being an alcoholic, she drinks away what money she gets monthly from the government. That’s forced him to work and pay the bills since he was sixteen.

Evanna Stahl has been caring for her sick mom for years. She’s never questioned why this was her life, but with graduation approaching and a boyfriend who isn’t at all supportive, she’s becoming overwhelmed by her future and prays for help. She knows God is always with her.

Both Truman and Evanna have had to grow up long before they should have, but at least they’ve always had each other. They’ve always done what they could with what they had in order to make it work.

The hits keep coming, but when one door closes, they’re assured that God opens another. And they have faith that they can get through anything as long as they're together.

It’s supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year, but Leyland Scott is down in the dumps. It’s his first Christmas since losing his mom, it’s possible his job of over twenty years is about to be axed, and he just can’t find it in himself to care about anything really. Except for one thing—Lynette who works at the coffee shop. She’s the only bright spot in his day.

Lynette is fairly new in town, having made the move to the big city a few months ago to find herself. She’s struggling to make ends meet but she’s determined to prove she can make it. During that short time, she’s become interested in Leyland, who frequents the coffee shop. And when he finally asks her out, she’s skeptical at first but agrees, only to discover she’s happy she did.

The two have a common concern when they hear the wildly enthusiastic, if a bit (all right, a lot) out of tune Christmas carols being belted out by an underdressed kid wearing angel wings and no shoes. It’s freezing outside, with snow covering the ground, but the boy appears unfazed and continues merrily singing his heart out in front of passersby. No one knows who the kid is, but Harold, as they end up naming him, seems to know them all.

Normally not a religious man, Leyland has a change in spirit. The angel boy seems to deliver a message, letting him know this is his opportunity for a fresh start. He’s told when one door closes, another door opens. Perhaps God, with the help of Harold, has opened that door. If that’s true, Leyland is ready to go through it with Lynette.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Maybe it’s also time for a new beginning for them both.

Six on Sunday - A FUREVER HOME, a Sweet Christian Romance

Six paragraphs from A FUREVER HOME, a sweet Christian romance by Linda Mooney writing as Lynn Gayle.


1. Knox watched the man walk away in the direction of the parking lot. Go home, have a stiff drink, and go to bed. The suggestion sounded like a good one. “Except it’s backwards. First I’ll have the stiff drink, then I’ll head for home and bed.” If there was anything positive to say about being placed on probationary status, he was being given a few days of paid leave to get his head together, until he was called in to find out what the final decision would be.

2. “I, uhh. I thought you might have had to work late.” He remembered to smile. “Glad you were able to make it.” He doled out her potatoes and passed the tray over to Chad, who finished filling the tray before handing it to her. It wasn’t until she left the serving line that he noticed the piece of rope—no, it was a jump rope—tied to her belt. The other end… He leaned over the counter. The scrawny little black and white-spotted mutt obediently remained right on her heels, unmindful of the other end of the jump rope tied to his collar.

 

3. She was intelligent and funny, as well as an animal lover. He studied her face as she continued. He wasn’t an expert, but he would swear she wasn’t involved in drugs. Other than being a bit on the skinny side, she looked healthy, which made her story that much more interesting.

4. The smile dimmed but didn’t vanish. “When my mom died a couple of years ago, that left just me and my older brother. She and Dad divorced when we were little, and we’ve never heard from him since then. I don’t even know if he’s still alive. Anyway, Bradley and I both had full-time jobs, but it wasn’t enough to pay the rent and utilities, plus put food on the table. So he entered the military, hoping to be able to send back enough money to help me get by.” She slowly shook her head, and it was as if a dark cloud descended over her. “Bradley collapsed during a training session. The doctors said he died of an aneurysm. They promised me he didn’t suffer. It was that sudden and unexpected.” She watched a dollop of ice cream slide down toward her hand before she took another long lick to pick it up. “Mom had a life insurance policy that paid for her funeral, but Bradley didn’t. The Army wouldn’t because he hadn’t been with them long enough to qualify. So I sold off what I could to pay for his casket and all, and to buy a plot next to hers where he could be buried.”

5. He checked his phone. He’d been sitting in this interrogation room most of the day. After the detective had quizzed him on his actions the night of the fire, the man had left him alone. Other than remarking on the charge Knox would be facing if the autopsy results came back to incriminate him, and that one time an officer brought him the coffee and a bag of chips, no one had come in to check on him. At least, not in person. He glanced up at the tiny camera visible in the corner of the ceiling. He knew they were watching him. Monitoring him. Maybe recording him. 

6.  Jenise lay there, eyes closed, and listened as he switched the laundry. She heard the dryer door close, followed by the click of the dial and the steady hum as he turned on the machine. She waited until Knox closed the bedroom door, then sat up. Corky whimpered, and she shushed him with a calming hand. “It’s going to be okay, little man. He’s going to be okay, too. I just feel it in my gut. Right, God?” Casting her eyes at the ceiling, she lifted the amulet on her necklace to her lips and kissed it. A sense of calm answered her, and she lay back down, cuddling the dog against her as she fell back to sleep.

After getting a call to the warehouse district, firefighter Knox Norville was ready to write it off to arson. The abandoned buildings are home to many vagrants and drug addicts, but he arrives ready to do his job regardless. He wasn’t expecting the effect this call would have on his life...or the one decision he made that could possibly ruin him forever.

By saving one young woman, and going back to look for her dog, he thought he was doing the right thing, not neglecting his duties. But what he soon learns hits hard, and his conscience eats at him. One horrible thing after another on the worst day of his life lands him a hefty fine, community service, and possible jail time, but is it all divine intervention?

Jenise Danziger had nothing physically, but through her faith, she had everything she needed, except maybe a permanent home for herself and Corky, her faithful companion. But she trusted that in time God would provide, and put her exactly where she's supposed to be. And just maybe that was in the arms of her rescuer.
