Changes are coming for Katie that will require her to open her heart and take risks. Risks that might leave her hurting again.

She is exactly the kind of woman he’s been looking for, even if she has walls that could rival those of Jericho. Persistence has always been his friend. But will failures in his past threaten to undo his dreams, and ruin any chance he has for lasting happiness? Only Katie can answer that.
Will Katie be able to trust God’s plan? Or will the walls she’s built obscure the blessings God has for her?
