About this ebook
Can they learn to trust God when scandal threatens their newfound love?
As the lone female in a houseful of men, Merrill Krause dedicates her life to caring for her family and their business, as her dying mother asked. Besides, it suits her; she's never felt like she fits what most people expect in a girl--she'd rather work with her father's horses and assist with the ice harvest. And though she's been mostly content up to this point, a part of her wonders if there will ever be anyone who will notice her amid the bevy of brothers determined to protect her from any possible suitors.
When Rurik Jorgenson arrives in their small Minnesota town to join his uncle's carpentry business, he soon crosses paths with Merrill. But unlike other men, who are often frightened away by her older brothers, Rurik isn't intimidated by them or by Merrill's strength and lack of femininity. The attraction between them begins to build . . . until Rurik's former fiance shows up with wild claims that bring serious consequences to Rurik.
Can Rurik and Merrill learn to trust God--and each other--when scandal threatens their newfound love?

The results of giving heed to lies and gossip , jumping to conclusions without facts.How people can twist things to their own advantage. Oh, What an awful web we weave when we practice to deceive.

Books need to be proof-read. Lots of typos. Enjoyed the story.

I've loved it. Best of all. A Christian can read it and does not feel dirty! Thanks to the Lord!
