The endearing story of a young woman ready to strike out on her own
Belinda Davis is restless. As her friends get married and have children of their own, she wonders what God has in store for her. Her life as a nurse seems dull and routine. She craves excitement and adventure.
When she meets an elderly woman who needs nursing care, Belinda jumps at the invitation to travel to Boston, a large, vibrant city so unlike the little prairie town where she was raised. Opportunities for books, theatre, and the luxuries of life provide excitement...for a time.
But in spite of financial security, countless new experiences, and even some romance, Belinda finds herself restless, lonely, and empty inside.
In stretching her wings, did she leave more than her home and family?
