THE SHAPE OF MERCY

The Someday List
By Stacy Hawkins Adams



Publisher: Revell Books
Release Date: Jan. 1, 2009



Rachelle Covington has it all. A fabulous home, a prestigious husband and two beautiful children. But her life is not all it's cracked up to be. When her husband goes away on business and the kids are sent off to the grandparents for a month, Rachelle heads back to Jubilant, Texas, to reconnect with her past, her purpose, and herself. The Someday List is an honest look at what makes us who we are and what can throw us off track.

"In perhaps her best book yet, Stacy Hawkins Adams paints a vivid picture of God's redemption in the face of our failures--past and present. Readers will enjoy the suspenseful conclusion as Rachelle Covington chooses between yesterday and someday."

Marilynn Griffith, author of Rhythms of Grace

"Stacy Hawkins Adams writes with verve, humor and poignancy about the juggling act of motherhood and wifedom and one woman's quest to find her own voice. The Someday List is Rachelle's story, and in it, you will find wisdom and truth, and an original take on how one woman handles the complexities of her life with courage and wit."
Adriana Trigiani, Bestselling author of the Big Stone Gap series, Lucia, Lucia and Very Valentine
