Promise for Ellie (Daughters of Blessing Book #1)

They're preparing for life together, but when their new barn burns, will their dreams and future go up in smoke too?After graduating in May of 1900, Andrew Bjorklund and Ellie Wold make plans to marry once the harvest is over and their new house is finished. They spend the summer working hard, and the Lord seems to shine on and in them in a special way. Everyone rejoices in their happiness. Everyone except for Toby Valders, who is determined to get even for all the drubbings he has taken from Andrew through the years. Andrew, however, has promised Ellie there will be no more fistfights. But when their new barn burns--and many of their possessions and dreams with it--Andrew throws his vows of nonviolence aside, reaping bitter consequences. Why is the life he has so looked forward to now unraveling so quickly?
