Hope

Although this is also a Christian romance historical fiction like the previous two, Faith and June, this is very different from them. I was unprepared for, but appreciated the difference. The action seemed unlikely (it's a story obviously), but certainly kept me interested and was good after the two previous that had less action. And it seemed to show God working more in this one than the previous two. ( )

Federal agent Dan Sullivan shelves his retirement to infiltrate a band of payroll thieves. But he didn't expect to meet stubborn mail-order bride Hope Kallahan, who gets kidnapped by the gang and held for ransom, or that she would be a veritable magnet for danger. As she intimidates hardened criminals into cleaning house and talks Dan into rescuing her, Dan believes God had a reason for throwing her in his path.
