God was going to save her marriage, Allison was sure of it.
But neither her husband nor her marriage had been saved.
What had become of His promise?
Tony Kavanagh had been Allison's dream-come-true. They were
in love within days, engaged within weeks, married and
pregnant within a year. Her cup bubbled over with joy . . .
but years later, that joy had been extinguished by
unexpected trials.
The day Allison issued her husband an ultimatum, she thought
it might save him. She never expected he would actually
leave. She was certain God had promised to heal; it was
clear that she'd misunderstood.
Now, living in the quiet mountain cabin she inherited from
her single, self-reliant Great Aunt Emma, Allison must come
to terms with her grief and figure out how to adapt to small
town life. But when she finds a wedding dress and a
collection of journals in Emma's attic, a portrait of her
aunt emerges that takes Allison completely by surprise: a
portrait of a heartbroken woman surprisingly like herself.
As Allison reads the incredible story of Emma's life in the
1920s and 1930s, she is forced to ask a difficult question:
Does she really surrender every piece of her life to the Lord?
Drawing from her own heart-wrenching story of redemption, A
Promise Kept is Robin Lee Hatcher's emotionally charged
thanksgiving to a God who answers prayers' in His own time
and His own ways.
