Ruthie Adrian loves ranch live with her handsome husband, Mac, and his family. But her hopes for a child dissolve when Mac, his brother and his father are killed in a crash. Added to their heartbreak, Ruthie and her mother-in-law, Naomi, now face rejection by her sister-in-law O'Dell, and impossible barriers as they try to protect their land.
Jake, a self-styled prophet, steps up with a bizarre offer. A God-send or a trap? With raw grief, unexpected humor, and life-giving grace, Unbound is a modern twist on a timeless tale of the unique bond between two widows, who harbour a few secrets of their own.
Dear Reader;
I hope you enjoy this book. But my prayer for you is that this is more than an entertaining story. I hope it transports you beyond your everyday cares so that through the failures and victories of its characters, you might see your own life and circumstances with new eyes.
In a world that tries to convince you and me that we are “enough”, the whispers of our hearts prove that message false. Like my characters, we are broken, fallen and unequal to life’s demands. We can never be good enough to make up for our past sins, since God expects perfection.
But God calls the weary and wicked to come to Him. He is able to give us the strength and goodness we lack. It’s free for the asking and it is lifetime-lasting! May the underlying truths of God’s Providence and love meet the needs of your heart and life.
Your Friend,
Eleanor Bertin
