They Waited Their Whole Lives for Their Papa to Return

Nan and Heath Duncan, siblings abandoned by their papa and abused by their guardian, have no choice but to survive on the London streets. When a kind gentleman rescues Nan from such a life, the siblings are separated and raised in two vastly different social worlds. Just when both are beginning to flourish and years have healed some of their wounds, their long-awaited papa returns and reunites them―bringing demands with him. Nan is expected to marry a rich suitor she's never liked, and Heath is expected to forsake his gentle spirit and become the hardened man his father always was.

Dangers unfold, secret love develops, fights ensue, and murder upsets the worlds Heath and Nan have built for themselves.

They've waited their whole lives for their papa to return, for tomorrow to come--but now that it has, will they be able to see through to the truth and end this whirlwind of a nightmare before it costs one of their lives?

Marilyn's thoughts:  My heart broke right at the beginning of this Christian historical fiction tale. Nan and Heath childhood was not a happy one in London East’s End during the early 1800’s.  Linder brought light into their life before the end with a cast of characters that were honorable while some were devious. The scenes were vibrant with plenty of action and conversations that I lived in the moment with the characters feeling their anguish, joy, tears and faith being tested. Mr. Stanhope and Gilbert were my favorite characters throughout the story. Fans of historical fiction set during the Regency Era will want to read When Tomorrow Came.
