The Gentle Shepherd

Her greatest fear is not being chased, but being seen.

Ella thought that if she rescued her sheep and escaped to the Greener Pastures, she could save herself as well. With the guidance of the mysterious shepherd Jesse Benadam, this seems possible—as long as she can keep her wounds hidden from him. But the farther they travel, the clearer it becomes that secrecy will cost her the refuge she seeks.

As storms rage, wild beasts attack, injuries throb, and sickness steals her strength, Ella’s fears hunt her like wolves. Her burdens only grow heavier. Jesse’s presence never wavers, but Ella cannot bring herself to trust him until she begins to suspect that the key to reaching the Greener Pastures may lie with him.

The problem? She will have to tell him the truth about herself and their mission—risking his rejection. Deep down, Ella knows this is her greatest desire, but it is also her greatest fear.
