Child of Promise (Brides of Culdee Creek, Book 4)

Kathleen Morgan¹s books for the general market have earned rave reviews and hooked thousands of romance fans. Her first inspirational series, Brides of Culdee Creek, has proven successful as well. Woman of Grace and Lady of Light each climbed the CBA Marketplace best-selling fiction list. This new release, Child of Promise, is the final book in the series. Beth MacKay, the daughter of Culdee Creek¹s owner, returns home after completing medical school to take over the aging Doc Childress¹s practice. Reluctantly, her life and heart become entwined with that of Grand View¹s Episcopalian priest, Noah Starr. But Noah struggles with his faith and calling since his wife died and his daughter, Emily, was disabled with cerebral palsy due to the difficult birth. When Beth becomes embroiled in a spousal abuse case between two of Noah¹s parishioners, she encourages the battered woman to leave her husband for her own safety. Noah cautions the woman to try to work things out, and when the abuse ends in tragedy, it¹s the last straw for the already-doubtful priest. Despondent and shaken, he announces his resignation to the church. Only with Beth¹s faith and love, and a little help from the community, can Noah find his way back to the life and calling God has always intended for him.
