Joella’s Charms
A Modern Faith-Based Retelling of Joseph and His Brothers
“They stole her past. God gave her a future.”
Joella never asked to be the favorite. But when her father gifts her a unique charm bracelet—each charm representing a prayer, a promise, and a piece of their bond—it becomes the spark that ignites years of jealousy. Her older sisters, Bianca, Tameka, and Maya, burned by resentment and blinded by envy, lure fifteen-year-old Joella on a "sister trip" to Jamaica. There, they betray her in the most unthinkable way—stealing her bracelet, her passport, and leaving her for dead.
But God was not finished with Joella’s story.
Rescued by a missionary couple and raised in the faith on the island, Joella begins to heal. Surrounded by love and grounded in truth, she learns that even shattered beginnings can lead to beautiful redemptions. Years later, when her adoptive father passes away and leaves her a home in Birmingham, Alabama, Joella returns to the very city where her life was torn apart.
With a heart full of grace and a past waiting to be reckoned with, Joella crosses paths once more with the sisters who betrayed her—and the family who thought she was gone forever. Will she seek revenge, or embrace the higher calling of forgiveness?
Joella’s Charms is a powerful, soul-stirring novel of betrayal, identity, and the redemptive power of God’s plan—even when life feels completely off course.
