The Lion Cubs

Word Alive Press 2011 Free Publishing Contest Winner (Fiction).

Fifteen-year-old loner Lexi Vogan has had enough. Four foster families in two years would be enough to make anybody run away! Alone in the world, she flees to Jacksonville where a group of runaway teens live in abandoned tunnels below the city. It seems like the perfect place for a forgotten face.

Liz Swavier, thirty-six, became a widow two years ago when her husband succumbed to cancer, but she’s managing just fine. At least, that’s what she tells herself. Working long hours as a doctor in the ER, Liz’s friends and family grow concerned that she’s hurling herself into work to numb her grief.

Then, on a typical Friday afternoon, an appointment with divine intervention causes these two very different lives to collide, beginning a journey towards restoration that only an all-knowing, loving God could weave together.
