Heavy Lifting: Love, Faith, and Second Chances at the Summer Food Drive (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798184829647)

When she asked God for practical help, she didn't expect six feet of shame-carrying logistics genius to walk through the warehouse door.
Nora Callahan has run Millbrook's Summer Stock-Up Drive alone for three years - organizing the food pantry's most demanding week when school lets out and hunger quietly spikes. She's competent, called, and carefully closed off. What she is not prepared for is Marcus Webb: her volunteer coordinator's last-minute replacement, a prodigal son back in town with a failed business and a faith grown cold, who happens to know exactly how to fix her bottlenecked warehouse floor.
Marcus came home to disappear for a week, not to find purpose. But there's something about moving pallets beside a woman who finds scripture in every corner and calls a child's prayer "completely normal" that makes a man remember what he's been missing. The problem is, Nora stopped trusting her own heart three years ago - and Marcus may be leaving as soon as the drive ends.

• A faith journey with real stakes: Marcus's return to God is earned, honest, and deeply moving - never preachy.
• Clean romance built on trust: Every step of the romance is grounded in character - shared work, honest conversation, and hard-won vulnerability.
• Setting with soul: A Georgia summer food pantry - steamy, chaotic, and full of community spirit - becomes one of the most compelling backdrops in Christian fiction.
• Characters who feel like people you know: Nora's fierce competence, Marcus's quiet shame, Mae's unstoppable intercession, and Destiny's zero-filter wisdom all earn their place in your heart.
• The kind of ending that makes you exhale: Hopeful, honest, and exactly right.

Perfect for fans of Denise Hunter, Becky Wade, and Susan May Warren - readers who want their hearts warmed and their faith stirred without a single compromise on either.
