Faith Brooks, prodigal daughter, has returned, attempting to put the past year of rebellion behind her. Remarkably, she''s been restored into the loving arms of her family and her old life. But past decisions have consequences-she is now a mere shell of herself-pregnant, penniless, and heartbroken. Choosing her baby''s life over Gabe, who she thought was her soulmate, was the right thing to do, yet she cannot easily relinquish her love for him. Faith must decide whether to raise her daughter or give her up, while struggling to move on without Gabe. And what is her true calling now that the hope of a musical career has also been sacrificed? She may have crossed the bridge to get back on the right path, but she can''t help looking back and wondering if Gabe will ever be part of her life again. And if the daughter they created will ever know her father.Finding Faith, the second in the Faith Brooks Series, is a story of overcoming. Faith proves what the love of family, friends, and especially God can do for one who feels hopeless and defeated. It is inspirational, thought-provoking, and evidence of the power of a faith-based life.
