Frayed Promises by Lynn U. Watson

Sequel to The BookFest® Award Winner, Tangled Promises Wurttemberg, Germany, 1881 “I’ll keep your secret. But, Clara.” Oma looked her granddaughter in the eye. “Choices carry consequences.” Clara and Daniel--the Baron’s daughter and the family carriage driver, followed their hearts and married secretly, circumventing nobility’s rules. They conduct their lives separately while sneaking every opportunity to be together. When Clara is forced to reveal her marriage, can she also hide the life growing inside her, and what punishment awaits from her father? If Vati sends her away, Daniel promises to follow. But unexpected family troubles bring them face-to-face with the words of Proverbs 16:9. A man's heart deviseth his way: but the Lord directeth his steps. Her grandmother’s last warning spins like a tempest threatening to shipwreck their joy and fray every promise they have made. Will they trust that God gives impossibilities beautiful endings? If you enjoy stories of faith in the face of society's pressures and trusting God in times of struggle, you'll love this closed-door romance that will keep you guessing until the end. For readers of Tracie Peterson and Ann H. Gabhart. NOTE: Inconvenient pregnancy, sanctity of life, and past abortion are a part of this story—handled with gentleness and grace.
