Pastor's daughter Rachel Whitaker has spent her life serving her small-town church, leading the women's Bible study and pouring herself into ministry. Everyone sees her as steady, faithful, and strong-but in her quiet moments, Rachel longs for a love that will see her heart, not just her role. When Eli Turner, a reserved mechanic with calloused hands and a guarded past, steps hesitantly through the church doors one Sunday morning, Rachel never expects her world to shift. Eli isn't sure he belongs in a place like this-he's still carrying scars from family betrayal and years of running from God. Yet something about Rachel's warmth-and her unshakable faith-keeps drawing him back. As Rachel and Eli's paths intertwine through Bible study, quiet conversations, and unexpected acts of grace, both are challenged: Rachel must learn that love requires risk, and Eli must face whether he can trust God-and another person-with his heart. In a story of hope, healing, and the gentle power of redemption, Hearts Mended by Grace reminds us that love rooted in Christ can transform even the most fragile beginnings into something eternal.
