This historic home holds the keys to their destiny . .
. and their hearts
Abandoned at birth, her family roots a mystery, historical museum
curator Sloane Kelley has dedicated her life to making sure others
know theirs. When a donor drops off a dusty old satchel, she
doesn't expect much from the common artifact . . .until she finds
real treasure inside: a nineteenth-century diary. Now she's on the
hunt to find out more.
Garrett Anderson just wanted to clean out his grandmother's
historic but tumbledown farmhouse before selling it to fund her
medical care. With her advancing Alzheimer's, he can't afford to be
sentimental about the family home. But his carefully ordered plan
runs up against two formidable obstacles: Sloane, who's fallen in
love with both the diaries and the house, and his own heart, which
is irresistibly drawn to Sloane.
A century and a half earlier, motherless Annabelle Collins embarks
with her aunt and uncle on the adventure of a lifetime: settling
the prairies of Sedgwick County, Kansas. The diaries she left
behind paint a portrait of life, loss, and love--and a God who
faithfully carries her through it all. Paging through the diaries
together takes Sloane and Garrett on a journey they never could
have planned, which will change them in ways they never imagined.
This warm, beautifully written split-time novel will resonate with
readers looking for stories that reveal the beauty of God's plan
for our lives, and how our actions ripple for generations.
