Description

In the year 1912, nineteen-year-old Christy Huddleston leaves home to teach school in the Smoky Mountains -- and comes to know and love the resilient people of the region, with their fierce pride, their dark superstitions, their terrible poverty, and their yearning for beauty and truth. But her faith will be severely challenged by trial and tragedy, by the needs and unique strengths of two remarkable young men, and by a heart torn between true love and unwavering devotion.

And don't miss another heart-soaring bestseller from Catherine Marshall: Julie

Janette Oke and Catherine Marshall pen Christian historical fiction that favors authentic female characters and small-town settings: the Appalachians during the Depression for Marshall and western Canada in the early twentieth century for Oke. Both inspirational authors imbue their stories, whether romance or family tales, with a homespun, heartwarming feel. -- Mike Nilsson
Both authors write moving, reflective Christian romance novels about women who navigate new careers and a chance at love with their faith. Catherine Marshall also writes inspirational books for children; Vanessa Miller mainly writes for adults. -- CJ Connor

Their chaste, inspiring novels show the potential power of the Christian faith. -- Mike Nilsson

Booklist Review

Nineteen-year-old Christy Huddleston volunteers to venture far into the Tennessee mountains to teach at a remote mission school in 1912; her deep religious faith gives her the strength to endure the turmoil of family feuds, a typhoid epidemic, and the abject poverty of the area. [BKL F 1 68]
