Rooted in Grace: A Jasper Creek, Georgia Romance
Jenna Stone
Jules Turner had it all—a six-figure marketing job in Atlanta, a renovated Midtown condo, and a clear path to success. But when her engagement implodes and a career meltdown follows, she makes an impulsive decision that changes buying a dilapidated Victorian in the small town of Jasper Creek, Georgia.
The Henderson House has "good bones," according to the listing, but Jules quickly discovers she's in over her head. With a fallen fence, leaky roof, and more renovation challenges than she bargained for, her fresh start seems destined for disaster. That is, until she meets Blake McAllister, the town's ruggedly handsome hardware store owner and master craftsman.
Blake is everything her ex-fiancé wasn't—steady, principled, and rooted in faith and community. As he helps Jules restore the historic home to its former glory, she finds herself drawn not only to his skilled hands and quiet strength but to the way he sees beyond her corporate accomplishments to the woman she's meant to become.
When Jules discovers the house was once part of the Jasper Creek Community Trust, its legacy of hospitality and community gathering sparks a vision bigger than herself. With Blake's guidance, she begins transforming the Henderson House into a bed and breakfast that could serve as both business and ministry. But as renovation challenges mount and a powerful developer threatens the town's historic properties, Jules must decide if she's truly ready to put down roots.
Complications arise when Jules's former boss offers her a dream position with an international luxury hotel chain—a job that would mean leaving Jasper Creek behind just as her connection with Blake deepens into something that feels remarkably like coming home.
Through autumn storms and holiday celebrations, community work days and quiet moments of connection, Jules and Blake build something more meaningful than mere renovation. With every repaired fence post and restored window, every shared prayer and intentional step forward, they craft a relationship as carefully constructed as the house itself—built on faith, crafted with purpose, and designed to withstand life's inevitable storms.
As spring approaches, Jules faces her most important decision yet. Will she choose career advancement in the city that once defined her, or embrace a simpler life with deeper purpose alongside the man who has carefully renovated not just her house, but her heart?
