Sunflowers in a Hurricane is a wholesome and inspiring novel, one that I highly recommend for teens and adults alike. - Laura Pearl, author of Finding Grace and Erin's Ring
Unlike other books that might be described as 'wholesome, ' Sunflowers is not cloyingly sweet. Bad things happen to good people, and faith doesn't automatically make life daisies and roses.- Amazon Reviewer
George Ferguson, an elderly gentleman, still misses his beloved wife who died in childbirth many years before. Cheryl Callahan is an angry single mother who left her home and her faith after high school and never looked back. Her teenage daughter Ruth chafes under her mother's rules and resents having to travel from Ohio to Massachusetts to bury a grandmother she didn't even know.
When Cheryl and Ruth move next door to George, the older man and young girl form an unlikely friendship as all three are forced to face the past in order to create a new future.
