Chasing Charity

By Marcia Gruver

Description:

When Charity Bloom’s fiancé, in full view of family and friends, leaves her stranded at the altar and takes off with her best friend, Charity is humiliated. How will this raven-haired beauty ever recover from losing both her betrothed and best friend on what was supposed to be the happiest day of her life?

When a tall, handsome stranger named Buddy Pierce finds oil on Charity’s mama’s land, he hopes to free the Blooms from their poverty-stricken state. But will Buddy discover that the real treasure lives above ground—in the form of Charity Bloom?

Ruing the day he threw his fiancé over for Emily Dane, Daniel Clark is determined to recapture Charity’s affection. But can he remove the three things that stand in his way—a manipulative mama, a spurned lover, and the stranger at his ex-fiancé’s side?

When Daniel re-stakes his claim on Charity’s heart, tongues wag and minds speculate amid schemes and scandals in Humble, Texas. Whom will she choose—the handsome roughneck or deceitful rouge?

Book Takeaway:

The reader might learn several things by watching Charity evolve, such as letting go of the past and fearlessly embracing change, the importance of acceptance and forgiveness of others, and learning to have faith in your instincts. The most important lesson is the one about trusting God with the details of our lives.
