From a fan favorite author with more than one million books sold, a heartwarming inspirational romance in the WAR BRIDES series: Caleb Hughes returned from the Great War a broken man. Not only does he battle nightmares and memories of the battlefields he faced, he can’t forget that he survived the war while those who signed up with him paid with their lives. Even his best friend has come back so injured he is dying. Caleb doesn’t believe he deserves to have been spared. How can he deserve the love of Lizzie, the young wife he met while stationed in England? Lizzie is alone in a new country - and in the company of in-laws who are cold and strict. Everything she does is wrong. Her love of music and art. Laundry. Cooking. Comforting her husband. How can she reach Caleb if he refuses to talk about the horrors he lived through? When Lizzie’s father offers to pay her way home, it shakes Caleb out of the emotional place of emptiness he’d escaped to. Will Lizzie's love be enough to keep Caleb from slipping away again? Can they both learn to trust God not only with the present but with their past and their future?
Author

Linda Ford grew up devouring books and making up stories in her head—often late at night when she couldn't sleep. But she hadn't planned to write. Instead, she dreamed of running an orphanage. In a way, that dream came true. She married, had four homemade children, adopted ten and lived (at times, endured) the dream. Writing first took her to non-fiction human-interest articles for newspapers and eventually a non-fiction book about tuberculosis set in the 1930s and 1940s (Touched By The White Plague). But romance had always been her first love and she turned to writing love stories. She is multi-published in the CBA market. She lives on a small ranch in Alberta, Canada, where she can see the mountains every day. She and her husband continue to enjoy their children and grandchildren.
