But when she meets Ethan, her carefully ordered life begins to unravel. With Ethan, she feels alive and free in ways she’s never experienced before, but their growing connection raises questions she’s been too afraid to ask:
What if faith is more than following rules? What if guilt and shame were never meant to define her relationship with God? What if there’s a deeper truth—one rooted in living by the Spirit instead of by fear?
As Lily navigates the beauty and intimacy of her relationships, she finds herself torn between the expectations of others and the quiet whisper of God calling her toward something greater.
