Redemption's Trail

By Betty Woods

Description:

Newly widowed with her second child due in a few months, Lily Johnson has nowhere to go until Toby Grimes, her late husband's boss, asks her to stay on as housekeeper at his ranch. Remaining in the house Mr. Grimes built for her and her husband is an answered prayer. But malicious gossips see her godsend job as a ruse for a sinful dalliance since her employer is a nice-looking single man.

God and a lot others turned their backs on Toby during the war, so he returns the favor by keeping to himself. Yet the need to care for and protect Lily overwhelms him. The way she tugs at his heart scares him more than going into a losing battle.

Unwilling to allow anyone to destroy a fine woman's reputation, he proposes a marriage of convenience. After much prayer, Lily accepts. Her first marriage was a love match made in heaven. The second leads down a trail only God knows the end to.

Book Takeaway:

God is still with us no matter what happens or what we've done. He'll work through the good and the bad in our lives if we'll allow him.

Why the author wrote this book:

I wanted to redeem the troubled man who caused so many problems in Love's Twisting Trail. So many people have hidden heartaches and don't know how to ask for help.
