Precious Burderns — Cathy Marie Hake

John Newcomb stares at Emily O'Brien and her poor family. She contends that John's brother married her sister and sired a baby. Clearly, Emily cannot provide for the woman and child. Though John is certain his brother never perpetrated this shameful hoax, Christian compassion leads him to intervene.

Emily has struggled to provide for her family, and taking charity goes against her grain. But when the lives of her loved ones are at stake, she learns her precious burdens were meant to be shared.

John and Emily are caught in a tide that threatens to engulf their hearts. Will God's love bring them to a safe harbor?
