Romance Historical
Her courage and her heart will be tested in ways she never
expected... Beth Thatcher has spent her entire life in the safe,
comfortable world of her family, her friends, and the social
outings her father's wealth provides. But Beth is about to
leave it all behind to accept a teaching position in the
rugged foothills of western Canada. Inspired by her aunt
Elizabeth, who went west to teach school several years ago,
and gently encouraged by her father, Beth resolves to put
her trust in God and bravely face any challenge that comes
her way. But the conditions in Coal Valley are even worse than she'd
feared. A recent mining accident has left the town grieving
and at the mercy of the mining company. The children have
had very little prior education, and many of the locals
don't even speak English. There isn't even a proper
schoolhouse. In addition, Beth's heart is torn between two
young men--both Mounties, one a lifelong friend and the
other a kind, quiet man who comes to her aid more than once. Despite the many challenges, Beth is determined to make a
difference in the rustic frontier town. But when her sister
visits from the East, reminding her of all the luxuries
she's had to give up, will Beth decide to return to her
privileged life as soon as the school year is over?
