A Carriage Ride Home

By Sandra H. Esch

Description:

Winter 1896 -- London, England

Young British nobleman Oliver M. Harrington married the love of his life only to lose her and their unborn son in a tragic buggy accident. Wanting to be close to her relatives and overcome grief, he moves to Amber Leaf, Minnesota. Through courage and hard work, he quickly rises in stature as a young attorney in a local law practice. But he finds himself in love once again with a beautiful young associate ... who is already in a relationship, albeit with a scoundrel. Will he pursue her? Or will he return to England and the life he left behind?

Travel back in time in this tale of romance, turn-of-the-century decorum, and adventure. A Carriage Ride Home brings you back to the world of Amber Leaf, Minnesota, before the events of the much-celebrated Amber Leaf Trilogy: Tracks in the Snow, Somewhere Between Raindrops, and A Whisper in the Wind.

Book Takeaway:

Though at times it's painful to walk the straight and narrow, in the end, God's blessings are nothing short of amazing.

Why the author wrote this book:

As I wrote The Amber Leaf Trilogy, Big Ole Harrington, one of my central characters, grew bigger than life, so much so that I spun off a prequel going back to his early years in England immediately followed by his journeys to Sudan and then Amber Leaf, Minnesota.
