Publisher's summary

Jessica Ross' scars run much deeper than the wounds of a world at war. Determined to escape the ghosts of her past and the German influence on her nightmares, she returns home to the sleepy Appalachian town of Hot Springs, NC, only to find the renowned Mountain Park Hotel has been converted into a "prison" for displaced Germans and, much to Jessica's dismay, her grandparents have befriended one of them.

August Reinhold has not only found kinship with Jessica's grandparents, but as they share their granddaughter's letters from the front, he discovers a surprising bond drawing him toward the independent and beautiful woman. Displaced by a war and a painful history, he finds Hot Springs and the intriguing Jessica Ross a tempting place to start over. Determined to scale the heights of her bitterness and show her the power of love, August faces more than just Jessica's resistance, but a more devious design to harm the civilian sailors housed in Hot Springs.

Will August's tender pursuit show Jessica the healing and hope she needs, or will bitterness force her into the hands of a "true" enemy waiting to destroy much more than her heart?

Excellent Story of Faith

Her characters are very real, diverse and create a very lively chemistry. Very much like real life and the way God works. Uniting diversity with His draw. I adored it and being a military nurse myself and also serving through a pandemic I felt she expressed that challenge well. I also felt she portrayed the south easterners with great respect which I also appreciate with my family being from that area and knowing the richness of their culture.
Thank You for letting God direct Your Gift of story telling.
