Summer on Sunset Ridge

by Sharlene MacLaren

Overview

Brought up on a Quaker farm near Philadelphia at the brink of the Civil War, plainspoken Rebecca Albright is expected to be charitable, peace-loving, and submissive. But she is feeling anything but. A feisty abolitionist, Rebecca is determined to aid the Underground Railroad no matter the cost, until her path collides with slave-catcher Sheriff Clay Dalton who's grimly fighting battles of his own. When tensions between the North and South escalate, the two find themselves propelled on a journey to discover just who God has called them to be—and whether friendship needs a common enemy.

Editorial Reviews

Summer on Sunset Ridge is a beautifully written tale rich with historical detail, but it is the romance between Clay and Rebecca that had me flying through the pages.
 
A literary triumph for author Sharlene MacLaren!
 
—Elizabeth Ludwig, Where Hope Dwells


In Summer on Sunset Ridge, Sharlene MacLaren has constructed a heart-stopping story wrapped around one of the most tragic times in American history. MacLaren is sure to please her ardent fans and develop new ones with this full-bodied tale featuring brave, Christ-loving characters who will stay with readers long after they close the book.
 
Debby Mayne, Author, High Cotton
 


Summer on Sunset Ridge is a heartwarming romance involving the pre-Civil War Underground Railroad. Sharlene MacLaren’s storytelling makes a reader feel as if they are a true part of the Quaker community with their plain dress and simple manner of speaking.

 A highly engaging novel for today’s culture!

"Finely detailed secondary characters add realistic depth to the story, making the world where the Albrights live feel dangerous and alive. Fans of MacLaren will be delighted with this first book in the Forever Freedom series." —Publishers Weekly review of Summer on Sunset Ridge
