Synopsis

Love can fill us with joyful expectation. But love can also hurt!

Will Esther's life journey heal the hurt? Is it possible for pain to be transformed into something better than if the hurt had never happened? Esther finds love through the power of forgiveness. This story deepens her capacity to understand life through the many shades of love.

Constance was inspired to write this fictional romance while sleeping. Drawing from her own emotions in dealing with tragic turns-of-events and the thrill of exciting adventures, Constance weaves together a delightful relatable story. This book is not your formula romance! Rather, it is a tale of three women whose lives are unexpectedly changed because of a selfish man, and how they develop resilience and character amidst the ensuing challenges of life.

A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

CONSTANCE MENZEL MANTHEI was born to a German family in what is now Poland. She experienced six years of love and care before her mother tragically died in childbirth. For the next eight years, like Cinderella, she endured torture at the hands of a hateful stepmother until her father left that wife and took the children to his hometown. She immigrated to America in 1900 and married Ferdinand Manthei, who had immigrated a few years earlier. The young couple settled in Petoskey, Michigan, and bought a small farm. Despite years of poverty in a difficult marriage, Constance taught her children and grandchildren the Christian faith, the value of hard work, healthy food, friendship, music, and a great sense of humor. Written just prior to her death in 1952, Constance Menzel Manthei weaves her own shades of love into this old-fashioned adventure romance rich with imagination.

Ruth Manthei Wilkey grew up in a family of entrepreneurs and learned life skills working as a secretary in family businesses. After completing her Associate degree at Bethany Lutheran College, Ruth worked for a year in Peru teaching and writing for a mission organization. Her sense of adventure led her work with Cru, a global outreach. She traveled extensively through Europe and studied in Israel before completing her Bachelor of Arts in Literature from Concordia, Irvine. Ruth taught English, Spanish, Music and Drama at Harbor Light Christian School before embarking on her 30-year career of teaching piano in her Creative Cottage home studio. Her students added A Touch of Class to many weddings and Christmas events. In her retirement, Ruth nurtures the souls of children by writing stories.
