Rain Song by Alice Wisler

Nicole Michelin dislikes airplanes, motorcycles, and Japan. Her parents were missionaries in Japan and she was born there. Nicole and her father came back from Japan without her mother, and Nicole knows only bits and pieces of what happened. Her father refuses to talk about it.

Nicole is pretty happy in Mount Olive, North Carolina, with her family and her fish. Through her column for the Pretty Fish web site, she meets Harrison and later discovers that his family knew her family when they were in Japan. As much as Nicole wants to avoid it she is drawn to discover the truth about what happened in the past.

She starts reluctantly on a journey to discover her past. To find out something about her mother. It will be a journey that will take her back to the land of her birth. A faith like a mustard seed will guide her to the truth.

A heart warming tale of self discovery and faith. I loved this story!
