Searching Hearts Part One

He wants to stay lost. God wants her to find him. Cal Bradley returned from serving overseas with nothing left to come home to and trouble connecting to anything again, especially the Lord. Ellen Camstead has a fearless faith and compassionate nature, and is looking for the next (or maybe the first) big adventure in her life. Cal meets Ellen when his only companion, a stray dog who accompanies him as he travels, is struck by a car. When Ellen is the good Samaritan who rushes to their aid, Cal feels part of his carefully guarded heart unlock. Ellen's kindness and relentless attitude start to make an impact, but there is a fortress of grief and pain surrounding the veteran's heart. Ellen knows that God doesn't deal in coincidences, He deals in destiny. What role is she supposed to play in Calvin Bradley's life, and what path is she supposed to follow in her own? The first book in the Searching Hearts series puts Cal and Ellen on different paths than either of them had ever expected, but the journey is just getting started. Will they have the courage to let go of the past and preconceptions and embark on a search and rescue mission that could heal them both?
