She dropped her valise on
the floor of the Grand Island, Nebraska, railway station and settled
dejectedly on a wooden bench. According to the Waltham watch hanging
from the silver chain around her neck, she had a half hour to wait
before the train left for Broken Bow. She had spent a miserable week
with Aunt Luncy, and it was a relief when her aunt didn't come to the
station to see her off. |

 Summer's
Promise ISBN 0-373-87155-4 September 2001 (Love Inspired) Rural North Carolina was the last place military man David Brown ever expected to call home. Brought here by tragedy, he now shared guardianship of his niece and nephew with a woman he'd never dreamed would shore his home - or his attraction. . . . Wall Street banker Summer Weaver had never asked God for anything. Now she prayed for strength to care for her sister's orphaned children - and found herself leaning on their uncle for support. Summer never imagined that footloose David could ever become so steadfast - or that she'd be willing to give up everything that had seemed important for something that mattered far more. . . . A reader from Texas had the following comment the September Love Inspired release: Thank you for incorporating your Christian values in your writing. "Summer's Promise" really touched me and I couldn't keep a dry eye though most of the book. God uses many avenues to reach his children and your writing, although fiction opened my heart to allow God to speak. Please keep writing Christian love stories and allow God to continue ministering to his children though you. Your use of Bible scripture in the text helps those who are not Bible readers begin to search for answers in the best place possible. Again, thank you for your talent and remember you are a missionary to hundreds of thousands of non-Christians and Christians. May you continue to be used to bring the lost to our Lord. |
