New from Beth E. Westcott
Heart’s Desire
A Novel
When Aubrey White and Jeremy Abbot meet again at her brother’s wedding, neither of them is thinking about falling in love. Both focused on their education and careers, they are surprised by love, and they soon learn that falling in love doesn’t follow a straight path to happily ever after. The stress caused by busy schedules, misunderstandings, a broken promise, a sister’s stubbornness, and a secret, threaten to uproot their plans for a future together.
Is God showing them that the desire of their hearts is not His plan for them?
