Brenda B. Taylor has stopped by for another visit and this time she's sharing her latest book with us! Heaven Must
Wait, Part II is a historical romance and will be released Tuesday May 3rd.
Times are difficult in Missouri after the Civil War. Families
struggle to keep their property from creditors and outlaws. The desire of Ralph
Wade’s heart is to marry the girl of his dreams, beautiful Leann Clark, but
many obstacles stand in their way. Ralph finds love is not enough to persuade
Leann’s father to give his permission for their marriage. John Clark wishes
more than love for his daughter. He wants her husband to provided a good living
with a secure future. Ralph is much too hot-tempered and unreliable in John’s
eyes. Leann desires the dashing Ralph and defies her father to be with him. She
believes her love is strong enough to see them through the hard times. Through
adverse circumstances, the young couple struggle to keep the fires of their love
and faith burning.
Excerpt:
Leann
felt she couldn't be happier. Her parents seemed to have forgiven Ralph for the
altercation he had with Wesley Snipes over a saloon girl and were making
friendly overtures toward him. She knew Pa expected both she and Ralph to act
responsibly, and she determined not to break his trust. Her heart sang as they
walked to the oak tree where Maude waited patiently.
Ralph put his hat on,
then untied his mare. “I love you, Leann. I'll see you next week.”
“I love you. I can hardly
wait 'til next Tuesday.” She looked toward the house, then stood on her tiptoes
and lightly kissed his lips.”
He quickly glanced
toward the house, bent down and planted a firmer kiss on her mouth, then
mounted Maude. Without saying anything more, he turned his horse toward home.
She stood watching until he rode out of sight. With a heart bursting of love
for Ralph, Leann made her way back to the house.
