Inspirational Historical
Worlds lie between the marketplaces of India and the halls of a magnificent country estate like Highland Hall. Will Julia be able to find her place when a governess is neither upstairs family nor downstairs help?
Missionary Julia Foster loves working alongside her parents, ministering and caring for young girls in India. But when the family must return to England due to illness, she readily accepts the burden for her parentsโ financial support. Taking on a job at Highland Hall as governess, she quickly finds that teaching her four privileged, ill-mannered charges at a grand estate is more challenging than expected, and she isnโt sure what to make of the estateโs preoccupied master, Sir William Ramsey.
Widowed and left to care for his two young children and his deceased cousin Randolphโs two teenage girls, William is consumed with saving the estate from the financial ruin. The last thing he needs is any distraction coming from the kindhearted-yet-determined governess who seems to be quietly transforming his household with her persuasive personality, vibrant prayer life, and strong faith.
While both are tending past wounds and guarding fragile secrets, Julia and William are determined to do what it takes to save their familiesโcommon ground that proves fertile for unexpected feelings. But will William choose Juliaโs steadfast heart and faith over the wealth and power he needs to secure Highland Hallโs future?
