Escaping to the New World is her only option...Rescuing her will wrap the chains of the Spanish Inquisition around his neck.
Here's my Cover Reveal! Do pray for God's blessing as we begin the buzz for our
new Christian novel Marisol with its professionally designed
cover. Marisol is scheduled to be released Nov. 8. It will go on Amazon for
pre-orders in August.
Here is the premise/theme of this novel:
Love, forgiveness, and
determination can overcome the most horrifying experiences and poor choices
when God is invited into the equation
The scripture that will be printed in the front pages is
Psalm 107:23-30
Amplified Bible
23 Some go down to the
sea and travel over it in ships to do business in great waters.
24 These see the works
of the Lord and His wonders in the deep.
25 For He commands and
raises up the stormy wind, which lifts up the waves of the sea.
26 [Those aboard]mount
up to the heavens they go down again to the deeps: their courage melts
away
because of their plight.
27 They reel to and
fro and stagger like a drunken man and are at their wits end [all their wisdom
has come to
nothing.]
28 Then they cry to
the Lord in their trouble and He brings them out of their distresses.
29 He hushes the storm
to a calm and to a gentle whisper, so that the waves of the sea are still.
30 Then the men are
glad because of the calm, and He brings them to their desired haven.
Thanks for your prayers! That's what will
make this book, not only be an exciting read, but also inspire lives with nuggets of God's truth.
Back Cover Copy
Marisol Valentin flees
Spain after murdering the nobleman who molested her. She ends up for sale on
the indentured servants’ block at Charles Town harbor—dirty, angry, and with
child. Her hopes are shattered, but she must find a refuge for herself
and the child she carries. Can this new land offer her the grace, love, and
security she craves? Or must she escape again to her only living relative in
Cartagena?
Captain Ethan Becket,
once a Charles Town minister, now sails the seas as a privateer, grieving his
deceased wife. But when he takes captive a ship full of indentured servants,
he’s intrigued by the woman whose manners seem much more refined than the
average Spanish serving girl. Perfect to become governess for his young son.
But when he sets out on a quest to find his captured sister, said to be in
Cartagena, little does he expect his new Spanish governess to stow away on his
ship with her six-month-old son. Yet her offer of help to free his sister is
too tempting to pass up. And her beauty, both inside and out, is too attractive
for his heart to protect itself against—until he learns she is a wanted
murderess.
As their paths
intertwine on a journey filled with danger, intrigue, and romance, only love
and the grace of God can overcome the past and ignite a new beginning for
Marisol and Ethan.
Marisol is scheduled to be released in November by Wild
