Publisher's summary

Having returned to Chicago, young socialite Anna Nicholson can't seem to focus on her upcoming marriage. The new information she's learned about her birth mother continues to pull at her, and she hires Pinkerton detectives to help her find the truth. But as she meets people who once knew her mother and hears stories about the past, Anna soon discovers that some secrets are better left hidden.

At the same time, unflattering stories about Anna are leaked by someone who would love to see her disgraced and her engagement broken. And as Anna tries to share her faith with her society friends, she understands that her choice to seek God's purpose for her life isn't as simple as she had hoped.

When things are at their darkest, Anna knows she can turn to her grandmother, Geesje de Jonge, back in Holland, Michigan. Geesje's been helping new Dutch immigrants, including a teen with a haunted past, adjust to America. She only hopes that her wisdom can help all these young people through the turmoil they face.

beautiful story that will stick with me forever!

I feel as though I've walked through these people's lives as a friend! I'm so thankful for this story, and the beautiful perspective the author gives to all of life's experiences. I was blessed by this book, and the Waves of Mercy book as well!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

love & mercy

this was such a great book. it shows people how to have love and mercy and compassion for others. Even when you don't want to. I enjoyed learned and listened I am looking forward to more books like this.Great story of love. Be prepared for a lot of twists and turns in the book. Some of its predictable but it doesn't take away from the story and the life's learning lessons

Another Great Story

Lynn Austin writes books that make you think about how you act and how you should treat others. This one was neat bc it parallels multiple different relationships having similar situations and different outcomes.

Some of the readers voices were not believable and could have been read better.

Romantic.

I think it was one of the best books I have ever listened to.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in love Stories, adopted kids, and a mystery.
I often love to listen to romantic stories and mysteries, but if you do not like that it's still a really good book so please try it out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Listen, love, and enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wonderful!!

This is without a doubt the best faith based story I have listened to in a long time. The first book in the sequel was great, but the narration could have been better. The narration in the 2nd book was fantastic! The deep faith of the characters was very inspiring and Bible quotes were wonderful. I couldn't put it down because this story took many twists and turns. I was hoping there was a third book! Enjoy!!

Great Book

I loved the story and the way that it presented real feelings of Christians and their family highs and lows. All the whole showing the hand of God weaving in His blessings and interweaving lives together for His purposes.
