Gathering up the Stones

He needs a family to want him. One family wants him but can't have him.

Emmaline Holcomb has waited years for God to grant her a child of her own. In the wake of miscarriages and a failed adoption, she resigns herself to believe a child will never come. When her husband prompts entering the world of foster care, it's not long before Ollie arrives in the Holcomb household and their resolve is tested once more. In Emmaline's eyes, he is a stone, cast away, and she can't wait to gather him up. But she must let him go--another season she must endure.

Seven years pass.

When a discovery that could alter the trajectory of both their lives emerges, Emmaline must race to unveil the truth if she hopes to ever gather up her stone.

For everything there is a season... Told through the eyes of a lost boy, a struggling mother, and a woman who hopes to be one someday is a tale that personifies the wisdom of Ecclesiastes 3:5.
