The Wallflower

Emma has made peace with being unnoticed. Plain and quiet, she stands in the back row at every singing, mouthing the hymns while her vibrant friend Hannah shines in the spotlight. It's simpler this way. Safer. When you're invisible, no one expects anything from you. No one can be disappointed.Josiah, the Bishop's son, is tired of being pursued. Tired of the performances, the calculations, the young women who see only his position. He longs for something real-someone whose faith isn't a costume, whose kindness isn't a strategy.Then he hears her singing.A novel about the courage to be seen, the beauty of being real, and the love that finds us when we least expect it.
