Signed in Red: A Shepherd's Grove Story (Shepherd's Grove Stories)

Sadie Beckett was focused on everyone but herself. Between helping her father care for her sick little brother, Kirk, and working at Shepherd’s Grove’s local bookstore, love was the last thing she expected.

A Make-A-Wish event introduces her to Dorian “Hook” Darby, pitcher for the Louisville Flames. Off the field, he's nothing like she imagined. Patient, dependable, and dealing with family troubles of his own, Dory somehow always shows up exactly when she's carrying too much on her own.

But love doesn't stop life from happening. Between road trips, family responsibilities, heartbreaking diagnoses, and impossible choices, Sadie and Dory discover that forever isn't built during the easy moments.

It's built by choosing each other through the hard ones.

A heartwarming small-town romance about family, faith, baseball, and finding home in the people who stay.
