A hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.
The verse from Proverbs eased its way into Grace’s mind as she rode, its message striking a sweet chord in her soul. A tree of life, indeed. Full of promise and vitality, and ready to offer shelter from whatever storms might come. A gift of love that would never die.
Nothing could compare.
Christy Award finalist and winner of the ACFW Carol Award, HOLT Medallion, and Inspirational Reader’s Choice Award, bestselling author Karen Witemeyer writes historical romances because she believes the world needs more happily-ever-afters. She is an avid cross-stitcher and shower singer, and she bakes a mean apple cobbler. Karen makes her home in Abilene, Texas, with her husband and three children.
