With the threat of disaster never far away, only love and faith can carry them through.
For Elena Petrich, life in a Washington coal mining town means living every day on the brink of tragedy. She has grown up knowing that danger is never far from the men who descend into the earth each morning, yet the love of her family offers a shelter from the shadows of uncertainty.
Nick Fremont struggles with his family's judgmental attitude and finding his own purpose in life. Cold and rigid in their faith, his family left him more hollow than hopeful, but the Petrichs have become his anchor. And while his relationship with Elena has evolved into something more than friendship, his anger at God means they could never be anything more.
A group of thugs threatens the well-being of the Petrichs and their neighbors, and Elena and her family fear how far the criminals will go in their attacks. When further tragedy strikes, will Nick and Elena be able to find their way through the dangers of life in this coal town--and to each other?
Tracie Peterson begins another faith-filled Christian historical romance series set in a small Washington coal mining town in the Pacific Northwest during the early 1900s. For fans of friends-to-more, found family, Janette Oke, and Lauraine Snelling.
