Product Description
As the dim lights of the train station faded, Christine Bennett wondered if she would ever see home again. With the death of her grandfather, Christine experienced a deep loneliness she’d never felt before. The words of his will rang in her ears: "In the event of my granddaughter’s death, everything will go to Vince Jeffers." Jeffers watched her with an evil look that made her shiver. Now, afraid of what might happen, she was obeying a note she had received saying she was in danger and must leave town immediately. After escaping to the community of Baxter, Christine begins to piece together a new life. The love she finds there, along with newfound faith, sustains her as she faces the threat of danger.

Enjoyable Christian Story

This is a quick, light read that was enjoyable although predictable. It takes place in the 1800s and is a story of family relationships, adventure and romance. It has a very strong Christian theme throughout that is brought about through a Christian family, the Camerons. They took in Christine, the 19-year old girl who left her grandfather's home after he died because his business partner wanted her dead and was trying to have her killed.
I liked how the author let the reader know what the characters were thinking, especially Luke and Christine as they were becoming attracted to each other. That was cute and interesting to watch their relationship develop from each of their different perspectives.
--Karen Arlettaz Zemek, author of "My Funny Dad, Harry"

I got this book as a gift and I loved it so much that I have read it several times in the years since I received it. When I read it, I feel like Christie and Luke are standing in front of me, acting out their parts.

This book was a refreshing look at a situation which helped me strengthen my faith. It is nice to read a book that is so morally sound.

This book was really well written. It was fascinating and I could not put it down. Luke and Christine's story was so touching. I was upset when the book came to an end, becauseI wanted to keep reading and reading! The rest of the series was awesome too. I would definitely recommend it!It was just too good!
