Dear God, It's Me

Before Grace Evans ever understood the power of prayer, she had already learned the necessity of it.

Raised in the heart of Alabama, Grace comes from a generation of women who knew how to make something out of almost nothing-women who worked, raised families, carried burdens quietly, and still found a reason to believe God would make a way.

From childhood in the cotton fields to the responsibilities of womanhood, Grace's life is shaped by love, sacrifice, heartbreak, family, and a faith that is tested more than once. Through every season, prayer becomes more than something she does. It becomes the thread connecting one generation to the next.

But some things are inherited that no family talks about.

As Grace grows older, she begins to understand that protecting the people she loves may require confronting the wounds, patterns, and secrets that have traveled through her family for generations.

Dear God, It's Me is a moving work of fiction about the prayers whispered when nobody else is listening, the strength passed from one generation to another, and the kind of faith that survives even when life does not unfold the way we prayed it would.

Inspired by the extraordinary life of Mrs. Lula B. Talley Edwards, this is a story of faith, family, resilience, and the enduring power of prayer.

Inspired by a life, but written for every family that has ever survived because somebody kept praying.
