Book Description:
How far can one girl drift before grace calls her home?
Naomi was the pride of her disciplined Christian family in London-bright, beautiful, and full of promise. But all that changed when a new friendship at school lured her down a dangerous path of rebellion. Influenced by the world and infatuated with a reckless boy named Troy, Naomi made a decision that shattered her home: she ran away.
Her journey was anything but romantic. Betrayed, abandoned, and scarred by life on the run, Naomi ended up in the care of a Christian family who introduced her to a different kind of love-one rooted in truth, patience, and healing. Meanwhile, her grieving family had relocated to Texas, trying to rebuild their lives on a mechanized farm with the help of Uncle Thomas.
Ten years later, the broken pieces begin to mend. Naomi finds restoration and discovers a calling to help other runaway girls reunite with their families. Her return to Texas becomes a moving homecoming-a story of healing, forgiveness, and purpose.
A Rose from London in Texas is an unforgettable Christian novel of rebellion and redemption, told through a blend of emotional depth, relatable characters, and powerful spiritual themes. As Naomi and her family navigate loss, second chances, and the quiet miracles of grace, readers will be drawn into a story of hope that transcends geography and brokenness.
This heartwarming novel will resonate with families, prodigals, and anyone who has ever needed a way back home.
