They captured America's heart on camera. Now, step into the story that captured theirs. Inspired by the real-life winners of America's Favorite Couple. A timeless story of love, loss, and the God who writes better endings than we ever could. When millions watched the winners of America's Favorite Couple share their reunion story-a pair of high school sweethearts who found each other again after thirty-five years apart-it captured the nation's imagination. But what if we could see the story behind the headlines? In As Sure as the Stars, that's exactly what you'll find. Kelly Richardson thought she had love all figured out-once. At seventeen, she was the girl who believed in forever. Jake Forester was the boy who made her believe it. They danced under the Alaskan stars, made promises, and dreamed about a future that was never meant to be. Then life happened. Choices. Distance. Silence. Now, decades later, Kelly is a successful divorce attorney in Boise, Idaho-helping other women pick up the pieces of broken vows while quietly wondering if love is just a beautiful lie. Then one morning, she looks up and sees Jake again, and her carefully constructed world begins to shake. Jake's now a father of six, and a man carrying his own regrets. As they're brought together by friends-and maybe by providence-Kelly begins to realize that sometimes the hardest part of love isn't losing it, but letting it return. Told in tender, time-swept layers between 1980s Alaska and the present day, As Sure as the Stars is more than a romance-it's a journey of faith and rediscovery. It's a reminder that true love isn't about perfection; it's about persistence, forgiveness, and trusting that God writes better stories than we do. Spanning from the golden nights of 1980s Alaska to the quiet ache of present-day Boise, As Sure as the Stars takes readers behind the cameras and into the hearts of two people whose fictional journey mirrors a very real one. It's a tender, faith-filled portrait of forgiveness, timing, and the kind of love that doesn't fade-it just waits. Perfect for readers who love: ���� True love stories reimagined through fiction ���� Clean, emotionally rich romance ���� Themes of faith, forgiveness, and second chances ���� Authors like Charles Martin, Karen Kingsbury, and Richard Paul Evans

Aged eight, Thomas Graumann excitedly boarded a train in Prague, Czechoslovakia, to embark on what he believed was a three-month holiday. "Go to Britain, learn English, and when the Germans leave, you can come home again," his mother assured him. Thomas carried two suitcases and a bag of food. At the time he knew his country had been taken over by the Germans and now was under Nazi control. That was the last he would see of his mother and most of his Jewish family, who died in concentration camps. He had also never heard of Nicholas Winton, the hero who saved 669 children (Thomas was one of the last, #652), transporting them from Czechoslovakia to the UK to save their lives. This was Thomas' first rescue, aboard what became known as the Kindertransport. His second came a year later when an evangelist from the Scottish village he was taken to for safety shared the good news of Jesus Christ with him. Saying a prayer on bent knee, Thomas' soul was rescued, and he soon dedicated himself to missionary service, which he fulfilled as an adult in the Philippines, eventually moving to the U.S. But his missionary zeal returned after the fall of Communism - and the return of his grandmother's property to his family. Both actions ushered in a way for him to return to the Czech Republic. The former rescued child was now free to travel throughout his homeland, speaking in schools of how he was rescued... not once, but twice.
