My Cherokee Rose

Usually the death of a loved one soon ends or at least reduces their influence on those they leave behind. Not so with Maddie Whitehead Ryeton.A single red rose in a funeral bud vase and the bequeath of a used taped-up USPS box with JENNI scrawled in her grandmothers handwriting pique the young girls curiosity. Were they related? How? She sets out to find the answer. Where would that search take her?With her deceased scheming grandmothers blessing and a phone number she heads to Meadowview Kentucky and into a family filled with Christs love.Would this new experience and an old minister named Abbott Kendall lead to the unlocking of the iron gate on her own heart?
