Home Run for the Heart

By: Martha Rowe Sconnely

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Joslyn Jones is everything businessman and volunteer coach Sam Hopkins wants in a woman. There's just one problem. Joslyn has already decided to stay single. Forever. Sure, there's an endless stream of people trying to introduce Sam to someone he'll like enough to ask out more than once. But Sam, on the other hand, can't get not-interested-in-a-relationship Joslyn out of his mind. Home Run for the Heart (formerly a shorter title, One Plus One) reveals Sam and Joslyn's unfolding relationship in greater detail. Their deep love for God can be seen as they grapple with difficulties. Joslyn faces job loss and saying goodbye to a beloved friend. Sam finds himself praying with a young man whose father has abandoned him. Joslyn sees the fruit of the Spirit in Sam's life and Sam is attracted to both Joslyn's outward and inner beauty. Just when Joslyn begins to open up to the possibility that she and Sam may be a match made in heaven, something happens that makes her question whether Sam is really the man she thinks he is - she is tempted to give up on love all over again. Will she go to the championship game anyway, and will she give Sam a chance to explain?
