Produktbeschreibung

Melva Tipton lives in Chilhowee, Tennessee. She is a feisty, outdoorsy, young girl with her own mind, which is encouraged by her parents, Noah and Nancy Tipton. Noah is the owner of Tipton Mercantile. Melva sees a handsome man, Burl Whitehead and decides she will marry him.

Meantime, Melva receives another botched proposal from her best friend's brother. She turns him down, causing a rift in the relationship with the sister which never mends.

Burl is in no mood to be caught. But circumstances change his mind. After their marriage, Melva has a hard but idyllic life until faced with a terrible tragedy. This precipitates a decision she must make. Like before, Melva heads for her Secret Place where she mulls the problem with the help of the family Bible. When a voice in her ear whispers, "Melva, I have chosen you, why haven't you chosen me," she must make a decision. This choice will change her life.

This book is set against the building of the ALCOA dams on the Little Tennessee River, prohibition, the before, during, and after World War I, and the measles epidemic and depression of the thirties.

Autorenporträt

For three-quarters of a century, Reba Rhyne's home has been in East Tennessee. During this time, she was married for 25 years, had a daughter, and established a business of her own. Writing began as a hobby, while she spent months on clients' locations as a consultant, developing prototypes for boat upholstery. This is her first published novel, but not her last. Writing in a style reminiscent of Laura Ingalls Wilder and Janette Oke, Reba Rhyne, tells stories based on real history, much if it inspired by her own ancestors. For sixty years, she has been a Christ-follower who believes her responsibility is to follow the Great Commission found in the Gospel of Matthew. Retired, she shares her fifteen acres in the Smoky Mountain foothills with Phil the groundhog and numerous other animal friends.
