This is an absolutely beautiful story! I loved the "revenge is sweet" story turned around because of God's amazing love. I look forward to reading more books in series. I highly recommend this book.
Lots of romance, and Christianity.

Wonderful Christian romance! First I've read by the Lacy's.
Railroad baron John Stallworth and his wife Maria lost no time getting custody of their beautiful granddaughter Megan after their son Peter's tragic death. Consumed with hatred at losing Megan, Peter's spirited young widow answers an ad for a mail order bride, determined to earn enough money to beat her in-laws at their own game---and vowing to keep Megan's existence a secret. However, because of her newfound faith, her plans for revenge change and produce a victory she could never have imagined.

Not a bad book but I got bored at technical segments
