Life goes on...
Paula Franklin and her husband planned one day to own a Christian bed and breakfast. Now, five years after his death, she finds the perfect old farmhouse on a country road near Brenham, Texas to fulfill that dream. She sees the beauty and charm of another era hidden in the waist-high weeds and sagging front porch.
Unfortunately, her daughter Kristi opposes the idea. She insists that Paula invest the life insurance in her stock brokerage firm. When Paula goes against her daughter's wishes and purchases the one hundred year old home, Kristi is furious.
The farmhouse requires a complete renovation, and a local contractor, Rick Davenport, offers the lowest bid for the project. Rick and Paula soon become friends. She appreciates his gentle spirit and love for the Lord. As their friendship deepens, the strife between mother and daughter steadily grows worse. When Kristi threatens to destroy everything Paula believes in, Rick becomes a source of comfort... and more.
"Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while" (Mark 6:31 NIV)
