She had eleven versions of her life laid out like clothes on a bed. She could not put on a single one.
Peace Ferrer engineers other people's decisions for a living. At twenty-nine, in a glass tower in Dallas, she cannot decide where to eat lunch. Three job offers rot in her inbox. Nine apartments sit in a spreadsheet with weighted columns. A good man loves her and answers every question the same way: whatever you want.
Peace Ferrer engineers other people's decisions for a living. At twenty-nine, in a glass tower in Dallas, she cannot decide where to eat lunch. Three job offers rot in her inbox. Nine apartments sit in a spreadsheet with weighted columns. A good man loves her and answers every question the same way: whatever you want.
Then the phone rings on a Tuesday afternoon, and her grandmother is dying two hundred and ninety miles away in a town called Cana, Texas. For the first time in two years there is only one road - and Peace does not choose it. She is sent.
What waits for her is a house with a well everyone calls dry, a pastor who buried her mother, a well-driller who surrendered his right to pursue her nine years before she came home, and a man out on Farm Road 12 who preaches surrender beautifully and keeps what he is handed.
PEACE: A Longing to Betrothal is a novel about the weight nobody warns you about - the crushing labor of being the final authority on your own life. It is about the difference between the surrender God asks for and the counterfeit that wears its clothes. And it is about the one question that tells them apart: what did you pay?
Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men. - 1 Corinthians 7:23

Inside this book
- A complete novel: prologue, twenty-two chapters, and an epilogue
- All Scripture quoted verbatim from the King James Version, with chapter and verse cited on every quotation
- Six full pulpit teachings woven into the story: the waterpots of John 2, the two yokes, the bride price, Rebekah's I will go, the betrothal covenant, and the marriage supper of the Lamb
- The ancient betrothal pattern traced from Moses to Revelation - the price, the cup, the prepared place, the Father who alone knows the day, and the cry at midnight
- An author's note that draws a hard line between what Scripture actually says and what popular teaching has added to it
- Twenty-four questions for reflection and group study
- A complete index of every passage referenced
For every soul standing in a doorway, counting the roads, and finding no rest in any of them.
Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee. - Isaiah 26:3
