About this ebook
Peace and innocence are lost when Claire chooses vanity over doing what is right in the eyes of God. Then the boy appears, taking her by the hand and leading her down a path of self-reflection and healing, in a world unlike anything she's ever seen.
As she struggles to survive the river, can she find forgiveness from her Creator, her child and herself?
A novel about true forgiveness from a God who loves us unconditionally. Who celebrates with us in times of joy and agonizes with us in times of difficulty.
An encouraging journey showcasing the power of love to overcome even the highest hurdles, to find restored relationships and peace beyond our sufferings.
"God is a God of love, not hate. He's always ready to hear us when we pray and He promised never to leave us. He's always been with you. You see, He didn't go anywhere, you did." -Jim River Boy

About the author
Growing up on a farm in the Midwest, MJ (Jeanette) Ulmer had ample opportunity to explore the outdoors, letting her imagination grow along with her ever expanding horizons. She began writing poems in middle school as a way to express herself, then branched into photography in college, and ultimately answered the call (in her forties) to write the stories that were laid on her heart.
With an ambition to help others find hope and encouragement through her writings, MJ strives to pair real-life struggles with the unending promise of God to heal, redeem and restore what is lost or broken. She considers herself a hopelessly hopeful person and tries to live on the optimistic side of life.
In addition to writing, MJ also works part time as a photographer and floral designer, teaches piano lessons to a small group of children, serves as an Elder in her church, and assists on the family farms. Riding motorcycle and 4-wheelers top off her favorite outdoor activities. And, when possible, tropical vacations in the middle of the cold Midwestern winters.
Born and raised in southeast South Dakota, MJ still resides there with her family.
