About the Book
Book: Emma’s Hero
Author: Carrie Walker
Genre: Christian Contemporary Romance
Release Date: April 5, 2024
“God won’t give me more than I can handle? I’m pretty sure He just did.”
After a year of loss and bad choices distance Emma Reynolds from her lifelong beliefs, she finds herself pregnant and alone at a twenty-week ultrasound, hearing the words “incompatible with life.” When her son, Theo, survives birth, she fights to give him the best care possible. As each day passes, Emma’s love for Theo grows—along with her fear of losing him. She can’t understand why God allows her son to suffer.
Seventeen-year-old blogger, Mason Hughes, feels lonely and worthless after his father left their family years ago. When he ignores his mother’s push to “contribute to society,” she volunteers him to help Emma each week. Wishing he’d applied for any other job, Mason has no choice but to grocery shop and practice his rusty social skills with a mother and son he doesn’t know.
Paramedic Ben Sullivan has earned himself the title of “most eligible” bachelor among his friends as they continually set him up on blind dates. While he’d love to avoid the uncomfortable events, his heart can’t help but seek the one thing missing in his life—a marriage like his parents have. If only he could find the woman himself.
As Theo’s tiny life connects them to each other, their loneliness breaks under the love of community, and they will never be the same.

More from Carrie
A number of years ago, I walked into a hospital
room to visit a young woman I knew whose daughter with semi-lobar
holoproscencephaly had been admitted. When I laid my eyes on the
beautiful, tiny baby I knew that sweet girl had touched many lives,
probably without her mother even knowing. The seed for a story was
planted. I’d never written a book before so I ignored it for a long
time, but then I witnessed an isolated teen in the school my children
went to and that seed of an idea blossomed. Soon, the idea of a baby
changing the life of a troubled teen would not leave me alone. And
because I believe every book is better with romance, that baby might
just have to touch a few other lives 
I took writing classes and penned this story over and over until it was
right. And now I hand baby Theo to you, and pray he touches your life
as well.
