Tender Love — Irene Brand

MOTHERLY MIRACLES

Childless, widowed and at loose ends, Alice Larkin prayed only to be of service. And if ever a family needed her help, it was handsome, tormented ex-minister Mark Tanner and his two motherless children....

Alice agreed to be their live-in nanny for a time, hoping to perform some motherly miracles, then move on. She'd turn their untidy house into a home. Make two lonely kids healthy and happier. Alice never expected to lose her heart to the blue-eyed pastor and his little flock. Yet soon this temporary "mom" longed for a miracle of her own: to restore Mark's troubled soul to the Lord...and to love.
