Some yeses are worth waiting for.
Five years ago, Noah Bennett gave up the girl he loved because he believed God was asking him to. Now Ava Carter is back: baptized, standing on her own, and done waiting. She asks him to ask. Noah says, "Not tonight. Not alone."
What follows is a year of courtship done in the light, with counsel, boundaries, and one night that tests them both. A charming mentor who never asks what Ava believes, a father she has to face, and her grandmother's note ("Kept is not the same as locked") make her wonder whether she's guarding her heart or hiding it.
