"Eve lost her husband five years ago. David, her son, had only been five years old at the time. Since then, Eve has focused all her energy on making ends meet and being a good mother. Michael Hauptfleisch lost his wife and son in an accident ten years ago. Struggling to move on, Michael has held onto his grief and became a recluse. It was easier to nurture his anguish than to bid his memories farewell. When Eve's son David overhears a conversation about Michael Hauptfleisch and his hermit ways, David empathizes and wants to help. He prays for guidance and soon begins on a journey of doing chores for Gott. Through these chores, he hopes to help Michael overcome his grief. David's journey of chores for Gott is short-lived. Instead of turning his back on the man who chastened him for his kindness, David enlishts the help of his mother to nurse Michael back to health...Through faith, Michael, David and Eve work through difficult challenges to find their happily ever after." from the back cover.
