And on top of this shattering news, a crisis is about to strike that will rock the whole town of Fairhope---and shatter Lanie's dreams of love.The Miracle continues the story of a young woman's valiant struggle to uphold her faith, her family, and her dreams during the height of the Great Depression. |
