Sarah has never written a book I don’t love! Glimmer of Hope has unforgettable characters who are vividly brought to life. It was hard to put down, but then I was disappointed when it had to end.

I don’t want to go on and on gushing about …
This book immediately captured me. It was a clean, sweet, historical romance. I couldn’t put it down. I loved every moment of it.
