Grace & Glory

Sometimes love waits quietly in the wings—until purpose calls it center stage.

Staff Sergeant Danica Stewart had served her country with pride, but one mission remained unfinished: the quiet love she harbored for her Desert Storm commander, Corporal Bradford Stynes. Years ago, she buried her feelings beneath military decorum and the inconvenient truth of his marriage. But when she learns he’s divorced and living in the Louisiana Bayou, she packs up her heart and follows hope south.

What she finds is not the reunion she imagined.

Bradford is dying. With only months to live, he welcomes Danica with open arms and an open heart, but he’s already made peace with his journey home to Glory. Each night, Danica holds his hand and prays. On a quiet Tuesday, he whispers a request to the Lord—and Danica watches the man she loved slip away. But not before he makes her promise to let herself be found.

On Memorial Day, with grief fresh and grace unfolding, Danica and her spirited new friend Shatora attend a tribute service in Bradford’s honor. There, in a moment heavy with memory and light with divine purpose, she meets Officer Spencer Days—Bradford’s friend, and a man with his own tender story to tell.

Bradford always said they needed to meet. Now, as sparks fly and hearts open, Danica must decide if she’s ready to stop hiding behind duty... and step fully into the grace and glory of destiny.
