In Quest of Beauty is told from a Christian perspective. Dr Lynda Ince-Greenaway distils the stories of ten women alongside her own experiences showing how it is possible to master personal and work life challenges. She provides a reflective account of how these women transitioned from metaphorical ashes and storms that became a threat to a journey that became beautiful.

The process of transformation is evident as each vignette unfolds to reveal the power of faith during turbulent and disquieting times. Ince-Greenaway demonstrates how an indomitable spirit moved the women far beyond ashes and storm to beauty. Of importance is how she provides a road map of techniques and strategies that any person desiring to reach a stage of beauty can easily apply to their life. In quest of beauty offers practical tools, tips and suggestions with reflective activities.

In Quest of Beauty is presented as a task that requires an audacious spirit to deal with pain and suffering, yet it leads to hopefulness, forgiveness, and ultimately resilience.
