Hope That Sings — JoAnn A. Grote

Carrie Chambers has fallen in love. But the man of her dreams isn't the hometown sweetheart her parents had hoped for, a pleasant Christian man. Charming, fun, and endearing, Dexter Riley makes his living playing with the 1892 St. Louis Browns of the Beer and Whiskey baseball league. And he's not a Christian.

Despite her parents' protests, Carrie tells herself God can do anything, even bring Dexter to Himself. Her love for this rugged athlete will last a lfetime, she claims, and if necessary, she's goint to love Dexter into God's family all by herself.

For now Dexter's life is as free and perfect as his effortless swing at the plate. Yet the day may come...but will Carrie's love and witness be as determined then to show him the way!
