Beyond The Storm

240 pages. Soft cover. Recommended for teens and adults.

The conclusion of The Growing up Carolina series has Annie and her friends growing into young adults. It’s the 70s and momentous events begin shaping their lives in ways they could never have imagined. From the sun-bleached, open savannahs of Africa to the steamy jungles of Southeast Asia, friends and loved ones are living lives and facing struggles in those lands that once seemed so far away.

Idealistic and innocent, David and Michael have joined the Marines and wake up in Vietnam to the life and death reality of the naïve choice they have made.

Annie finally sees her dream of going to Africa with her Aunt Maggie come true. But what does that mean for her and David? The future seems uncertain and filled with questions. Annie will have to depend on God to lead her through this quandary and to the will of God for her life.
