Sundays at Sal's Diner: A Contemporary Christian Fiction Novel
A gritty Christian contemporary novel about grace, second chances, and the God who never gives up on us.

Sal Hawthorne is no saint. She's the kind of woman who knows how to handle a drunk customer, pour a perfect cup of coffee, and hide a whiskey bottle where no one will find it. Running the local diner with a sharp tongue and a guarded heart, Sal has spent decades surviving—haunted by memories she won't name and mistakes she won't confess.

Then Mandy walks in.

Bright-eyed, relentlessly kind, and armed with a well-worn Bible, Mandy is the last person Sal wants behind her counter. But this young waitress isn't intimidated by Sal's rough edges. With gentle words and a quiet strength, she chips away at the walls Sal has spent a lifetime building.

As their unlikely friendship deepens, secrets begin to surface. Pain from the past. Shame that still stings. And the question Sal has never dared to ask: Could Jesus really want someone like her?

Told with raw honesty, dark humor, and a piercing sense of hope, Sundays at Sal's Diner is a powerful story of redemption, forgiveness, and the relentless love of a Savior who meets us right where we are—mess and all.
