Blurb for Liberty’s Promise:

Relive the birth of a new country as three women battle for determining to whom they can entrust their hearts. Raelene is all alone, but is there peace in following the wishes of her deceased father? Elanna is intelligent for her young age, but will her love for an older man turn into a passing fancy when his integrity is questioned? Margret’s loyalties are torn when the colonists rebel, for how can a relationship with a British soldier built on deceptions survive? Will each woman find her place of freedom to embrace her faith and trust her heart to love?

Blurb for The Easter Edition:

Bridal shop owner, Carol Horn, designs one-of-a-kind gowns and listens to brides talk about their future with the man of their dreams. While she looks forward to being a bride herself someday, she feels there has to be more to life and is praying the Lord will show her the path she should take.

Luke Peters, the new assistant pastor of The Town Church, has a messy past that involves manslaughter and doing time at the Illinois Youth Commission. Ten years later, Luke comes to Turtle Creek, Wisconsin a changed man. Carol sees Luke as a man of God and the answer to her prayers, while others believe Luke Peters has only honed his skills as a conman.

Despite having surrendered her desires to God, Carol finds herself drawn to the new pastor, at the same time she decides to spend time overseas building an orphanage. Luke Peters falls hard for Carol and will stop at nothing to keep her in town, by his side, even if it means deception.
