About

Sometimes you need to embrace your shadow before you find your light.

When recently widowed Elizabeth Whit inherits a tiny bed and breakfast in the forested hills of New England, she jumps at the chance to build a simpler life for her teenaged kids. But the property is a dilapidated mess, her neighbors want her gone, and that handsome handyman, Joe, keeps sending mixed signals. But those worries fade away when Elizabeth discovers something magical on her land - something that is calling her into the woods at night, and begging her to follow along ...

As the autumn leaves turn, Elizabeth can't tell if she's falling apart or falling into place. Her son's struggles with the system and her own fear of failure threaten to ruin it all. But she just can't let go of her new home. Is it the voices that whisper to her, telling her to push on? The friends she's made, for the first time in her life? Or is it the way that Joe holds her hand when she's scared? Answers await her in the oak grove ... if she can brave the dark. One way or another, Elizabeth will have to descend into its depths to find the light she's looking for in Solace Spring.

The magic is in the darkness.

A story of finding the self in the seasons of the Earth, Sanctuary offers the true seeker a second chance to come home to love.
