For a man who thought love was lost forever, an unfathomable miracle is still to come.

Edward Stubbins is an orphan in post-war England. Shipped to Australia at ten, he’s offered hope—then abandoned—again and again. A kind nun, a wealthy patron, a girl who promises forever—each walks away when he needs them the most. By the time he’s grown, his heart is sealed shut. When the end finally comes, it is quiet and bitter.

But grace keeps its own strange clock. The emptiness Edward expected in death never comes. Instead, a luminous stranger offers him the chance to live again—in a new body, in a new life, with a chance to rewrite his story.

One More Life to Live is a historical romance with a spiritual twist, a deeply emotional journey through loss, longing, and the quiet power of grace. Because there is always hope, if you only know where to look.
