For Everything a Time

By Melissa Allred

Some lessons don't come until everything else fades.

Jolene Rivera thought she had it all mapped out, a band scholarship, a strong faith, and the promise of a bright future. College was supposed to be a launchpad, not a spiritual detour. But the pace is faster than she expected, the nights longer, the voices louder. Before she realizes it, the quiet rhythms of prayer and reflection are drowned out by the clamor of campus life and curated perfection.

When news comes that her childhood friend Christina has survived a near-fatal accident, Jolene is shaken to the core. In the silence that follows, she's forced to confront the distractions, compromises, and slow drift that pulled her away from the God she once clung to.

Set against the backdrop of late-night rehearsals, dorm room debates, and unexpected romance, For Everything, a Time is a coming-of-age story about grace, distraction, and the sacred work of returning. With raw honesty and a thread of quiet hope, this novel explores what it means to lose your way, and find that God never stopped looking for you.
