Walking Into Love

She had built the perfect life. The career. The city. The carefully constructed version of herself that looked like success from every angle. But underneath it all, Elle Whitaker was running on empty. When God calls her back to the small town she left behind, Elle comes home with a surrendered heart, a signed lease on an empty building, and a dream she is just brave enough to believe in. The Overflow Cafe will be more than a coffee shop. It will be a place where people encounter Jesus over a warm cup and an open door. A place built on prayer before the first wall goes up. She did not plan on Eli Carter. Steady. Faithful. A man who builds things on the right foundation and has been quietly waiting for a love worth building toward. Watching Elle pour her whole heart into something God-given makes Eli pay attention in ways he never expected. But Elle has learned the hard way that being known can cost you everything. And trusting someone with her whole heart, the rebuilt, surrendered, still-healing heart, is the bravest thing God has asked of her yet. Walking Into Love is a story about coming home to yourself, surrendering your plans to a God who has better ones, and discovering that the love worth having is the kind that starts on its knees. For every woman who has ever let go of what she built and trusted God with what came next.
