About the Book
Book: Catherine’s Pursuit
Author: Lena Nelson Dooley
Genre: Christian Historical Romance
Release date: April 22, 2025
A secret family, a dangerous journey, and a reluctant protector who might save her heart.
Catherine Lenora McKenna has never lacked for anything. She has a loving father and is surrounded by people who care for her every need. Even so, she senses an odd hole. When she learns on her eighteenth birthday that she is not an only child, but one of three identical triplets, she finally understands what’s been missing. Setting out with a single clue, Catherine embarks on a desperate quest to find her missing family.
Colin Elliott is recovering from the violent storm that cost him his ship and left him with crippling injuries. The last thing he needs is to deal with the pampered daughter of his business associate, Angus McKenna. But McKenna is desperate and Colin indebted. As Colin follows and protects Catherine, he finds himself drawn to her kindness and strength, and drawn into her desire for family.
As love blossoms between Catherine and Collin, the journey takes a dangerous turn and each is forced to hold on to their newfound love and trust God to guide them.

My Review:
What strange news to receive on her 18th birthday! What would you do if you found out you are a triplet and somewhere two other girls are waiting to be found? Whether the girls want her presence or not, Catherine begins the journey to reunite after 18 years apart.
This quest, as in any quest in life, is sure to come with bumps, detours, and hardships before success—or failure.
Travel the western states in Catherine’s pursuit to fulfill a yearning and pull to change lives and direction. Will it hurt or hear, deter or fulfill what a young woman desires?
Bravo, Lena!

More from Lena
I’ve spent a lot of time with these triplets. They almost feel like part of my extended family. I hope my readers feel that way, too.
I have walked with the Lord for most of my 82 years. He has been with me through hard times and wonderfully blessed times. We learn and grow in Him more in the valleys than on the mountaintops. That’s why I write books that show how much He loves. We can’t understand the depths of His love for us unless we need Him desperately. I write these stories to share that love and hope to my readers.
While I am writing a book, I often pray for God to give me the words that will touch readers who need to know Him more. I also want to write a story that will entertain them as well.
If you want to bless me, please leave a review somewhere about the stories you love. I do try to read reviews and learn from them.
I’m only 15 months from losing the love of my life after spending 59 years with him. If the Lord puts me on your heart, please whisper a prayer for me. Prayer changes things.
