Synopsis

The Civil War has left behind a path of sorrow. Kate Austin has blossomed into a true beauty like a new rose in spring, but the war has created loss in every corner of her small world. The smile that those around her were once accustomed to has vanished, and all attempts to uncover it fall short. She continues to reach out to others with comfort and service, but no one can seem to reach the places in her heart that are so tethered to the painful past. What can bring Kate to realize that there is hope left in the world? When the young new doctor comes to town, Kate’s heart is tried in a new way. Can Kate find peace and joy amidst the turmoil of her war torn memories?

About this title

Review:

Take a journey back to the 1860s with Kate Austin and her friends to revel in that by-gone era, to delight in lady-like virtue and gentlemanly conduct, and to learn of Kate's true source of joy amidst life's circumstances. For this book's story might just leave you desiring with Kate for an immovable and ageless anchor to life's trials, for a divinely written gospel story that leads men and women from all time periods to conclude, "That We Might Have Hope." -David What a storyteller! The story weaving through the lives of young adults who physically survive the trauma of war captivates from the beginning of the book and holds the reader fast until the end. It is a story with fictional characters that sheds light and understanding on the life of those scared by the civil war bringing new appreciation to that period of history and the role of Christian faith in surviving and overcoming the challenges faced during that period. There has to be a sequel to this - can't wait to read the next one! -Patty My daughter and I both enjoyed reading this book. The author is a terrific story teller. The main character, Kate, is an example to all females of an industrious young lady who overcomes many trials, but remains steadfast in her faith. I can't wait for the sequel to this one! -Carmen
