Spring's Promise — Sharlene MacLaren

Michigan-born twin brothers launch a ski trip to the Rockies in mid-January. But elation turns to despair when one of the twin brothers is tragically killed on the slopes. In an attempt to appease his guilt and grief, Jake Evans, the living twin, sets out to make amends with his sister-in-law, Raychel, by offering his help with her two small children, doing odd jobs around her house, and generally easing her heavy load. Left to raise her three-year-old daughter and newborn son on her own, Raychel is anything but willing to be coddled by her brother-in-law, particularly since there is some ‘history' between them. Determined to make it on her own, she is shocked to discover that God has other plans for her, and those plans just may land her in the arms of her husband's brother.
