Life was good for Liz and Jack Sutherland, who built a family and a successful law practice over eighteen years of marriage in their warm home near San Francisco. However, their happiness shatters on Christmas morning when a five-minute errand leads to tragedy. Suddenly, Liz is left alone, grappling with the unbearable loss of her husband while trying to console their five devastated children, including one with special needs. Drawing strength from her children's love, Liz returns to work and takes on the dual role of mother and father, coaching her youngest son for the Special Olympics. As the holidays pass—Valentine's Day, Easter, July 4—Liz faces the challenges of grief without Jack. Just weeks before Labor Day, a devastating accident sends her oldest son to the hospital, introducing her to Dr. Bill Webster, who becomes a supportive friend as he helps her son heal. As summer transitions into fall, Liz finds hope in a new relationship while reflecting on her losses and the small blessings that provide strength. With the first anniversary of her husband's death approaching, Liz must confront one final crisis before she can embrace the changes of the past year and look forward to new beginnings. This story is about resilience, cherishing miracles, and the enduring power of hope.
