About the novella:

Would Amy ever see him as more than the former Loyalist who destroyed her home?

One more building, one more road, one more disaster reconstructed…but George Elliott remains trapped in the past, reliving his role in the destruction of Charles Town. With the support of his family and two Patriot generals, he is allowed to pursue a life among them, yet he struggles to find purpose and forgiveness in his unsteady heart.

Through her work at the hospital, Amy Engle strives to help the men who are alive but hurting as they struggle to grasp God’s forgiveness and move forward after war…George Elliott being one of them. The man soon becomes Amy’s mission with her prayers that God would give him purpose and confidence. What she doesn’t count on is her heart leaning toward romance.

With the devastation of war leaving nothing unscathed, the people of Charles Town could use a dose of Christmas miracles. Can George and Amy help bring hope to the suffering while also finding forgiveness and taking a chance on love?

Happy reading!
