Don't despair, we learn more about Caroline in Elle's story, Love Starts With Elle.
Caroline's ending is part of her life's journey. For the first time in her life, she knows God is real, He loves her and she surrenders her will to His.
She discovers a great destiny and joy in following Jesus. She had to see if she could deny herself and serve Him as much as she denied herself to serve others. Caroline had to know the source of her inner strength. Not herself, not Mitch, not the safety of Beaufort.
Sweet Caroline has a very happy ending, just a-typical.
I wrote the story to be true to Caroline and the story itself.
