Overview

Miriam Nadif, head buyer for her family's grocery stores in Lebanon, had thought she would be the spinster aunt, content to support her father and help him build up the family business. But her father's untimely death transferred her guardianship to her uncle, a Hezbollah supporter who refuses to allow her out of his house.

When they find her Bible, she is threatened with stoning and is forced to flee. She thinks immediately of her best friend from university in Canada, Jerry Ernst, whose gentle example led to her conversion to Christianity. Will the spark between them still exist? Will her troubles follow her across the ocean? Will he even want to help her?

But Jerry has his own problems raising his daughter as a single dad after his wife abandoned them and starting his career as a high school teacher.

Meet the Author

I am an accountant with the Canadian federal government in Ottawa. My wife and four boys think I travel too much for my job but the quiet evenings in the hotel give me time to write. The two dogs greet me the same way if I've gone for a week to the other side of the country or just to the grocery store for milk.

I credit my mother for my love of reading and my father with my love for story telling. My work involves writing a lot of reports that don't contain very many adjectives, so I thought I'd try writing fiction to make up for it.

When I started my first book, I wasn't certain where it was going. But the main characters wouldn't let me go where I thought I wanted to go with it. So I followed their advice and ended up with a romance novella. And, as hard as it was for a science fiction reader to admit, I'm really enjoying writing romance books from a more mainstream but conservative Christian perspective.

    A romance of the times.

    Confronting many issues of the times with sensitivity and care makes this a thought-provoking and enjoyable reading experience.
