Taryn McKenna believes she’s easy to forget. Abandoned by
her parents and left behind when her high school sweetheart
joined the army, she vows to never love again and throws
herself into her love for the outdoors and the pursuit of a
college degree—something no one else in her family has ever
accomplished. Her goal, as a young teacher in the hills of
North Carolina, is to leave a legacy in the lives of the
middle-schoolers she teaches.
When Taryn’s
grandmother Jemma, the only other person who ever held her
close, has a heart attack that reveals a fatal medical
condition, Taryn is corralled into helping Grandma work on a
final project—an Irish chain quilt that tells the story of
her history and the love Jemma knows is out there for Taryn.
As the pieces of the quilt come together, Taryn begins to
see her value. Can she learn to believe that God will never
leave her behind even though others have?
