About this listen
One woman’s inspirational journey to finding a perfect love.
From a young age, Grace Clifton longs to serve the Lord and dreams of being happily married. With England in the midst of a Second World War, Grace experiences the touch of God and also the excitement of love and romance, but all too soon, it turns to heartbreak. Throughout her life, Grace has been sustained by her unwavering faith, but when all she holds dear is ripped away from her, Grace is devastated and left doubting everything she’s ever believed in.
As the world slowly recovers from war, Grace too begins the healing process. However, her steadfastness to God has been lost and she determines never to pray again. When an unexpected opportunity comes up in Kenya, Grace seizes the chance to seek a purpose and build a new life. In Mombasa, Grace soon realizes that she can’t distance herself from life’s complications, but if she’s prepared to open her heart, maybe her fragmented faith will blossom once more and bring her hope, love, and the restoration that she desperately needs.
Grace in Mombasa is a story about a woman whose amazing faith is shattered when her life falls apart, but will God simply let her go? If you like heartfelt dialogue, stories seeped in fact and history, and memorable characters, then you’ll love Tracy Traynor’s moving and inspirational novel that was inspired by real events.
Listen to Grace in Mombasa to escape into a story of yesteryear and the evocative dream that is Kenya!

The Power Of Faith
This was my first experience with T. N. Traynor's work, and I enjoyed it. The story portrayed the life of Grace Clifton. When the story opened, Grace was young, and the world was descending into war. It told of the many trials and tribulations that Grace faced as her life continued to unfold. The story was thoughtful and inspiring. The characters were complex. Stevie Zimmerman's narration was fine, and her voice was pleasant. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

could not finish
I was only a few chapters in when I realized this book was taking a direction away from scripture. I honestly did not finish it, so i cannot say whether it came back to scripture; but what I did read beginning a very slippery slope away from God's Word.
