To Chase the Stars

By Tara Johnson

Description:

Isabelle Holland is trapped in a life she never wanted. When her tyrannical aunt plans her marriage to an odious man, and with no word from her family in Charleston, she feels her life is over…until she meets a sea captain who can offer her a way to flee Savannah and unravel the mystery of her family’s secrets.

Captain Henry Kincaid is running from the demons of his past. His only solace? Creating beauty from darkness and evading the man who refuses to leave him be. When his world collides with a vulnerable debutante, he must choose whether to allow the beauty to tear down the walls around his heart, or protect her from a danger even greater than the one from which she’s running.

When the lurking ghost from his past catches up to him, will he lose the woman who has given him hope? Where do two broken people turn when all they know of their family—and their identities—crumble to ash?

Book Takeaway:

People pleasing leads to shackles and pain, but freedom is found in stepping into the purpose and identity God has given you.

Why the author wrote this book:

God can redeem every story, every past, and every heart.
