The Promise of Morning

By Ann Shorey

Description:

Ellie Craig grieves the loss of three infant children, and when long-hidden secrets are brought to light, she must find a way to contact the family of her long-lost father. Meanwhile her husband, Matthew, faces controversy in his church and competition from a new arrival in Beldon Grove, who claims to be both a minister and the son of the town's founder. Will Matthew find the courage to reclaim his church? And will his unexpected travel companion help Ellie's heart mend?

The Promise of Morning addresses themes of overcoming tragedy, finding strength to meet daunting challenges, and trusting your heart to love again.

Book Takeaway:

The importance of keeping promises, both to God and to each other.

Why the author wrote this book:

Book 2 of the At Home in Beldon Grove series continues my desire to write sympathetically about women's issues in the 1800's, using my female ancestors as inspiration.
