When an old friend calls in a life debt and troubling news about his grandfather surfaces, Shawn is pushed to his breaking point. A colleague witnesses him unraveling under the strain, while a voice of wisdom urges him toward the truth he has long resisted. Torn between duty to his family, the desperate needs of his patients, and his own crumbling convictions, Shawn must make a choice that will define his future.
How much must a man lose before he finds himself?
In the chaos of the storm, both outside and within, Shawn discovers that survival is not only about weathering the winds, but about surrendering to the grace that can redeem even the most broken heart.

My Review: Riveting! I love "Hope In a Hurricane." The characters, the plot, the background, the location, and the use of an actual event all came together in a book that was both entertaining and thought-provoking! While there was no character that I could really identify with, the exploration of the individuals brought them to life and gave deeper insight into the circumstances that shaped each person. The varying stories of healing, hope, and redemption in the midst of Hurricane Harvey with flashbacks to scenes from their pasts makes you realize that what we observe on the surface does not even begin to help us understand each other.
"Hope In a Hurricane" is listed as Book 1 in the Journeys to Grace series. I can hardly wait to meet the characters CS Golding has planned for Book 2! In the meantime, I recommend this book highly. It is available in paperback, Kindle, and Hardcover.
C.S. Golding grew up in the small town of Belton, Texas, where the quiet countryside and the companionship of horses offered comfort amidst a turbulent home life. Fueled by determination and grit, she built a successful career in civil engineering, but even achievement couldn’t quiet the deeper ache in her soul.
After years of striving, stumbling, and silently searching for more, she finally fell to her knees and let Jesus in. That moment became the turning point. Redeemed and renewed, C.S. now writes to uplift others walking through storms of their own.
Her heartfelt words speak to the weary and the wandering, inviting both believers and seekers into stories of hope, healing, and the freedom only Christ can give. When she’s not writing, you’ll find her in the garden tending vegetables, laughing at her clumsy missteps, and giving thanks for the grace that sustains her.
