About this series
Heather Conway, daycare owner, has no extra money and very little faith. Where was God when her husband died, leaving her facing bankruptcy? Her fourteen-year-old son is out of control, she lives in a run-down two-bedroom rental, and she just bumped into a man who has her heart beating overtime.
Matt Sanders has just moved to town and placed his kids in Heather’s daycare. His admiration for Heather soon turns to love as their families intertwine through church activities and work on her daycare.
But six kids? Maybe Matt and Heather would be better off as friends. They find it’s hard to let go and trust God to take care of their tomorrows. Learning to lean on God can take a lifetime or maybe only a lesson in trust.
Learning to Lean is a full-length inspirational romance.
