When the River Speaks Your Name

When the River Speaks Your Name
A Story of Grace, Loss, and the Love That Finds Us Anyway

Eden Calhoun thought she had buried her past-along with her faith-on the day her fianc?died and she walked away from everything she once believed in. Now, five years later, she returns to her sleepy hometown not for healing, but to sell her late father's crumbling riverfront chapel. She plans to leave again, quietly and quickly.

But Luke Mercer has other plans.

A former soldier turned carpenter, Luke has been quietly tending to the chapel, fixing its broken pews and keeping its doors open-even when no one walks through them. When Eden steps back into the sanctuary of her childhood, he sees more than pain behind her eyes. He sees purpose. And maybe, just maybe, the grace she's forgotten.

What begins as a battle of stubborn wills and splintered faith becomes something neither of them expected: a journey of remembering. Through rainstorms, old letters, unfinished prayers, and a river that seems to whisper when no one is listening, Eden and Luke must confront their deepest wounds and the God who never stopped calling their names.

Set against the backdrop of small-town simplicity and quiet beauty, When the River Speaks Your Name is a story of hope after heartbreak, of rebuilding what was never truly lost, and of love that gently rewrites the silence.

Perfect for readers of:

• Christian romance with emotional depth
• Clean, faith-based love stories
• Themes of grief, redemption, and second chances
• Fans of Karen Kingsbury, Becky Wade, or Courtney Walsh

This novel is for anyone who has ever run from pain, doubted grace, or wondered if love could bloom again on holy ground.

Sometimes, the river doesn't just remember your name.
It speaks it back to you-softly, patiently, until you're ready to believe it again.
