When Grace Opens the Door

Lisa Scott left an abusive marriage with little more than the courage to begin again. At forty-four, she is building a life in a small Texas town near her grown daughter, working at a café, and hoping to return to the accounting career she once loved. She believes in God, but peace and a fresh start do not erase the questions she carries. Army sergeant Mark Grant knows a different kind of loss. Two years after his wife's death, retirement is drawing near, and the future they planned together is gone. His faith is quiet, his grief still present, and he has no easy answers. When Lisa and Mark meet at a Wednesday evening Bible study, their first conversations offer something neither expected: friendship without pressure. As trust grows, so does the possibility of a love neither thought they were seeking. But opening their hearts means facing old wounds, grief, and the fear of beginning again. Set in a welcoming Texas town outside San Antonio, When Grace Opens the Door is a tender contemporary Christian romance about mature love, healing after hardship, and finding hope one step at a time.
