"He was her pastor, her husband, and her world. Then he confessed his affair with her niece."
Ellie Gold thought she understood the rhythm of her life. A steady marriage. A familiar church. A family she believed was secure. When her husband of fifteen years admits to a betrayal with her niece, the revelation shatters everything she trusted.
In the aftermath, a single moment on a freezing river bridge leaves Ellie facing the question she has avoided for years: where is God when the earth gives way beneath your feet? With two young sons depending on her, she has no choice but to keep moving forward, even as grief, doubt, and loss threaten to pull her under.
As Ellie navigates grief, shame, and the long road back to herself, unexpected friendships with a circle of women who refuse to let her disappear, and a tentative connection with an enigmatic neighbor, offer no easy answers. Only the fragile possibility that healing does not come all at once. It comes in fragments. In courage. And in choosing to stand again after even the worst betrayal. But doing so will require Ellie to risk more than she ever expected. And to embrace an unknown future.
“The cast of characters in this story will remind you of the importance of friendship, prayer, and beautiful second chances.”
--Melanie Campbell Author of One Woman Falling

Praise for House on Sand
