Ellie's Haven: River of Hope, cartea 02

witnessed her stepfather commit a heartless crime, and,

knowing he'll stop at nothing to keep her quiet, she has

no choice but to flee. Soon, she finds herself in Wabash,

Indiana, scrambling for a cover identity to evade her

stepfather. For lack of a better option, she answers an ad

for a wife/housekeeper/nanny, praying that her lack of

experience won't be obvious.

A widowed father with no domestic skills to speak of

Gage Cooper is reaching the end of his rope. With four

children between the ages of three and ten, he needs a

reliable nanny, yet each one he's hired has thrown up her

hands and deserted her post. When an attractive, spirited

young woman applies for the "job," he knows he should

pray about the matter, but his desperation for help propels

him headlong into a marriage of convenience.

A trial by fire of their wedding vows

Ellie immediately falls in love with the Cooper children

and, not long after, with their father. Soon, the "marriage

of convenience" becomes less of a business arrangement

as husband and wife yield to an attraction neither one had

expected. When secrets of the past and dangers of the

present arise in their lives, their marriage is put to the test,

and God alone knows what will become of their union.
