Always clean, always appropriate for all ages our romance stories are filled with faith, family, and finding love. SALVATION - Courtney's Story is the third book in the Christian romance series The Carpenter Chronicles written by bestselling author Janice Limb Myers, previously a missionary. In this series you'll enjoy the stories of the Carpenter family lead by matriarch Grace Carpenter, also the CEO of the family publishing business. Each book in the series addresses the challenges and rewards of living the Christian life. Courtney was an angry child, blaming God for the deaths of her mother when she was 7 and her dad when she was 11. Anger clouded her emotions so much it was hard to appreciate her adopted family or the Mormon faith that was central in their lives. Now Courtney Carpenter is 23 and has it all - an attentive, loving family, a great job at the family's publishing company, all the physical comforts of life, and memories ... awful, dreaded memories of her childhood. Just when she thinks she's finally getting her adult life together, she gets news that would turn her whole world upside down and call into question her very identity. Courtney has made no secret at work of the fact that she wants to transfer from the home office in Utah where her adoptive mother is the CEO and be able to run a branch office in a much more exciting city like Dallas or San Francisco, New York City, possibly even a foreign assignment. Just a bit more experience and she should be ready for the promotion. But she should know from the life she's already had that hers is not one to follow a plan. Her apple cart is about to be tipped over and then over again making her focus on one very basic question: Who am I really? Until she can answer that questions, the dream job in a big city will be out of the question. Only her adoptive mother, Grace, holds the key to the 'dirty little secret' that is dogging Courtney. When Grace spills the beans, can Courtney live with her new reality and still move forward?
