A Hymn for Easter

Fifteen years after a tragedy shattered her faith and sent her running from her hometown, Nora Baxter returns to Shelbyville for one simple job: deliver an apology on behalf of a mystery client. But nothing in Shelbyville is simple — not the Horse Mountain Diner, not the town’s eccentric cast of characters, and definitely not Asher Richardson, the boy she once loved and left behind.

What begins as a quick business trip unravels into something deeper. Nora is confronted by memories she’s spent half her life avoiding, a mother she’s never fully forgiven, and a God she’s not sure she can trust again. And when a near‑disaster forces her to face the truth she’s buried since the day her sister died, Nora must decide whether she’ll keep running… or finally come home.

Warm, funny, and deeply heartfelt, A Hymn for Easter is a story about forgiveness, second chances, and the kind of love — divine and human — that leads us back to the light.
