In From the Storm

By Erin Stevenson

Description:

Vanessa Kingston is engaged to the son of the likely next president of the United States. Her life is about to change in ways she never imagined, and her upcoming fairytale wedding is a welcome distraction that leaves little time to reflect on her first love and a past mistake. Then, one phone call uncovers the secret Vanessa thought she had completely hidden, one that threatens to destroy all her future hopes and dreams.

Since a deep betrayal from his wife several years ago, Ben Garritsen has been alone. His longtime career is deeply fulfilling, but otherwise his life is empty. He has never forgotten the woman who first held his heart. Now, a life-threatening situation brings the past to light, and Ben is once again betrayed and faced with more deep pain and heartache that can never be undone.

When they meet and the truth is revealed, old and new hurts surface, but Ben and Vanessa must put aside the past and work together for a greater purpose. Against all odds, they find themselves at a place of healing, but another crisis destroys any hope for reconciliation. Will they ever find their way back to the love they lost, but both desperately want?

Set against the stunning backdrop of northwestern Montana, Our Place of Forgiveness is the second book in the Canadian Meadows series, a tale of lost love, lost hope, and the healing grace of forgiveness.

Book Takeaway:

Granting forgiveness is an act of faith. You must trust that God will complete the work, even if your feelings don't reflect it.

Why the author wrote this book:

I wanted to write about forgiveness in a context where the consequences were nearly impossible to overcome.
