Author Margaret Daley is my guest today. I featured another of her fine books on Monday and today she is going to share a bit more in depth about her heroine of her first book in her “American Tapestries” series. Margaret is the kind of author who makes me feel inadequate. She’s written over 60-count them-60 books! And now she’s the president of ACFW,<\/a> American Christian Fiction Writers, an excellent writing organization. Here’s Margaret:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

“My heroine Rachel fell in love and thought when she married Tom Gordon she didn\u2019t care that she was going against her family because she and Tom were meant to be husband and wife. That soon changed with she faced the emotional and physical abuse from her husband. She was cut off from her family, and Tom decided to alienate her even more by moving to the recently formed United States right after the War of 1812. He\u2019d bought a plantation where they could raise their children. Rachel was pregnant with her first child when they left England on a ship bound for Charleston, South Carolina. On the voyage her drunk husband fell overboard, leaving her a widow with a baby on the way.The first day in America Rachel was caught in a storm, her cart turned over and she went into labor. Thanks to Dr. Nathan Stuart she safely delivered her little girl, Faith. She thought her life had been rough before that. Now she faced being totally alone with little money in a foreign land that had gone to war with her country two times in the last forty years. She knew no one in South Carolina, but she hung onto the fact her husband had bought a plantation, a home for herself and her baby daughter.<\/p>\n

The plantation was really only a small farm next to a swamp with a rundown house that was barely livable. Rachel over the course of her marriage and troubles in America learned to lean on the Lord and to toughen herself to do what she needed to survive. She took two abandoned children under her protection and did what she had to make a living on her farm. She was determined she would make it on her own, that she would make the best of coming to a strange land and raise her daughter on her own. She relied on God to give her the strength she needed. Through these trials she learned a lot about herself and what her faith meant to her.<\/p>\n

Rachel\u2019s story reminds me of Ruth in the Bible. Ruth goes to a foreign land and must make a new life for herself. Through Ruth\u2019s problems she grows strong in the Lord.”–Margaret<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Shortly after the War of 1812, an Englishwoman, left stranded in South Carolina, pregnant and recently widowed, struggles to make a life for herself. Can the disenchanted American physician who comes to her rescue heal her wounded heart?<\/p>\n

Short synopsis:<\/p>\n

Rachel Gordon is stranded in South Carolina, pregnant, a recent widow when her husband fell overboard on the voyage to America. Nathan Stuart, a physician who came home from serving in the American army during the War of 1812, disenchanted with his life and the Lord, rescues Rachel and saves her life. Feeling responsible for her, Nathan tries to discourage her from living at a rundown farm her husband bought to start a new future in America. He wants her to return to England.<\/p>\n

Rachel refuses to go back to England where her father disowned her for marrying against his wishes. The farm is all she has, and she is determined to make it on her own. But Nathan has other ideas and becomes her farmhand to discourage her from staying in America. Instead he ends up protecting her and being challenged by her. Can two wounded people heal each other?<\/p>\n

Well, Rachel definitely fits my theme of Strong Women, Brave Stories. And it kind of puts our present world situation in perspective. Suffering and trials are a part of this world. And have been throughout history. Well, do you think this is a book you’d like to read?–Lyn<\/span><\/p>\n
