Valerie Rose

Sometimes searching for love is like waiting for the rain.

When single mum Valerie Rose arrives in Everlynn Valley in the middle of a drought, she doesn't expect to be dousing a perfect stranger with her iced latte. Perfect, and off limits. As chaplain at her son's new school, Owen is definitely... maybe?... surely not an appropriate dating choice... at all...

Owen Campbell has been stuck in a rut of people-pleasing and conflict suppression all his life. He's too nice. But when the new kid, Kai, is picked on at school, it tugs at Owen's inner child. Years of bullies getting away with bad behavior stops now. What Owen doesn't expect is for Kai's mum, Valerie, to pull at his heart in a different way entirely.

Meanwhile, Nettie Jones, a prayer warrior and spiritual godmother to many, feels led by the Lord to cover Valerie and Owen in prayer. But will it be enough when disaster and devastation hit Everlynn Valley? Or will Valerie and Owen's hope for the future be extinguished for good?
