Book Synopsis

Claire St. John has everything she's ever prayed for-a loving husband, a strong community, and the hope of starting a family. But when her first pregnancy ends in heartbreak, her faith begins to unravel.

Anger replaces trust, and the God she once leaned on suddenly feels impossibly far away. As she wrestles with grief, Claire crosses paths with Nurse Reese, a woman in desperate need of a kidney. Yet, she seems to be filled with unshakable faith.

Their meeting forces Claire to question what it truly means to believe when life feels unbearably unfair. Could her pain hold the key to a deeper purpose? Through love and loss, Claire discovers that even in the darkest moments, grace can weave a story of hope.

Tender and deeply moving, CLAIRE ST. JOHN is the first book in the Family Circle series by Amanda Umfress.
