Emily Hughs’ nightstand is scarred with dozens of tally marks. Each one was scratched into the wood after a night spent in The Dream. This has been happening since Emily was a young child, yet it isn't until she meets a set of sister missionaries that she realizes what the dream actually is: a memory from the life before this.

 

As Emily works to decipher the plea of the woman in her dream to "help my family," the missionaries teach her about their faith. After helping Emily recover from a financial crisis, they take her to church where she meets Andrew, a stunningly handsome young man with a family that seems too good to be true.

 

Andrew teaches Emily about love—both the kind that draws her into his family circle and the kind that makes her never want to pull her hand out of his. But when an incident involving both their older brothers comes to light, it leaves Emily doubting Andrew's sincerity.

 

Readers of Emily's Tree will laugh as Emily navigates her first romantic relationship, cry as she faces unexpected personal loss, and cheer her on as she discovers her potential as a new follower of Jesus Christ.
