Virginia Simpson is about to graduate from high school and continue her education at college when a family crisis derails her plans. Virginia soon discovers that the rest of the world is moving on without her. Her best friend, Jenny, discovers the freedom of college, and Virginia's boyfriend begins to grow away from God and then away from Virginia. As usual for Oke, this is a tender and touching novel.

After the first book, it seemed apparent that Jamison was *the one* for Virginia. This book really has her searching, and it really makes her stronger. It takes a lot of prayers for her to make it through, and it had me wanting to give her a hug!
