Remembrance — Janet Spaeth

Eliza has been betrayed and scorned.

Eliza Davis's life is turned upside down when she finds her fiancé with another woman. She flees St. Paul and, with the help of a newfound friend, reestablishes her life in Remembrance, Minnesota. But she and Hyacinth have hurdles ahead of them before they can call Remembrance home.

Silas Collier is dead-set against his uncle Edward marrying a woman he has only met through letters. When the woman arrives on the train with an unexpected companion, he finds both ladies suspicious. His qualms increase when Eliza reacts strongly to a newspaper report of a scandal in St. Paul.

Can Eliza overcome the darkness of her past and move into the light of God's forgiveness? Will Silas ever let go of his resentment and distrust of women to see the treasure God has brought to Remembrance, just for him?
