Goodness by Parks
Trish is a nurse working in a busy Labour and Delivery unit in a large city hospital. One night shift will change her life forever, but will she see any of it as good?
Grant and Stacy have suffered loss before and now live in the hope that their dreams will come true. The arrival of their baby girl is an answer to their prayers, but the joyous celebration soon turns tragic.
An unexpected love, challenging family relationships, a mysterious relative, and other surprises infuse Someone of Substance: the Goodness as these families come to understand that sometimes good isn't always recognizable.
Readers will love this novel about the great and bountiful goodness of God-even when we don't see it.
