Guiding Crosses (Paperback)

But then, even then, are the twists and turns of the path we chose prevalent because from one single act of love a life is conceived and a new journey begins.

Love will always find a way in Frederick E. Hoff’s touching new book, Guiding Crosses.

Based on the shocking true story, Hoff details the saga behind a teenage girl’s heartbreaking decision to give up her son for adoption, only to unexpectedly reconnect with him decades later.

Darlene’s unplanned pregnancy at the age of seventeen is devastating to her entire family. But her strict father makes it clear that the only option for her unborn child will be adoption.

The years pass, and a young man named Chad prepares to marry the girl of his dreams. Despite a childhood offering him every advantage, Chad’s knowledge that he was adopted has haunted him all the way to adulthood.

As the wedding nears, a new twist, a tiny clue, causes Chad to embark on the emotional journey to find the biological mother he has always yearned to know.

Frederick E. Hoff graduated from Troy State University before embarking on a long career with the Air Force. Now retired, he writes part time and has published three books to date.

Hoff currently lives in Alabama, the father of three living daughters and grandfather of seven grandchildren.
