Beneath a Southern Sky by Deborah Raney

The source material is composed of critical acclaim and narrative chapters from a novel concerning loss, spiritual calling, and romantic conflict. The story centers on Daria Camfield, who returns from her mission work in Colombia after her husband, Nate, a doctor, is presumed killed in a village fire. Daria rebuilds her life in Kansas, marrying Dr. Cole Hunter and beginning a new family, even as she grapples with her faith and guilt over leaving the mission field. The central dramatic tension erupts when Nate is discovered to be alive after nearly three years of captivity, forcing Daria to confront an impossible choice between her two husbands. Through intense legal and personal turmoil, Nate ultimately makes a profound sacrifice of love by choosing to dissolve their marriage and return to his ministry, allowing Daria, Cole, and their combined family to find peace.
