This book was masterfully written by 4 authors which integrated into one book with 4 sections representing generations of one family, their love of God, the centrality of faith to their lives and the common thread of one artifact in all these generations: a rare remaining copy of one volume of an original Gutenberg Bible passed down through the generations. I happened upon this book during this COVID-19 pandemic and my soul and spirits were lifted by it. As the title says, the four couples/four generations of this family were indeed bound by love. A good read - 16 years after its initial publication. ( )

A gust of wind scattered twigs along the sidewalk, then swirled around the ladder as Ann Heyden stepped on the first rung and inched her way toward the top.

Book description
In these brand-new novellas, four women of different eras are bound together by an ancient Gutenberg Bible: Her arranged marriage brings Lorice threats of death and days of fear--will she only find escape at the cost of her life? Paige despises aristocrats, and the earl she works for abhors single women--in taking refuge from each other, will they find romance instead? When Nazi bombs fall on London, Ann escapes to protect her grandfather's priceless Gutenberg Bible--but who will protect Ann from the danger stalking her? When Angela loses Tony to the mission field, her heart is broken--but in sacrifice will she discover ultimate love? When women of four generations discover a rare, priceless Gutenberg Bible, little do they expect just what adventure this tome will bring.
