A Promise Kept
<p><strong>God was going to save her marriage, Allison was sure of it. But neither her husband nor her marriage had been saved.</strong></p> <p><strong>What had become of His promise?</strong></p> <p>Tony Kavanagh had been Allison’s dream-come-true. They were in love within days, engaged within weeks, married and pregnant within a year. Her cup bubbled over with joy . . . but years later, that joy had been extinguished by unexpected trials.</p> <p>The day Allison issued her husband an ultimatum, she thought it might save him. She never expected he would actually leave. She was certain God had promised to heal; it was clear that she'd misunderstood.</p> <p>Now, living in the quiet mountain cabin she inherited from her single, self-reliant Great Aunt Emma, Allison must come to terms with her grief and figure out how to adapt to small town life. But when she finds a wedding dress and a collection of journals in Emma’s attic, a portrait of her aunt emerges that takes Allison completely by surprise: a portrait of a heartbroken woman surprisingly like herself.</p> <p>As Allison reads the incredible story of Emma’s life in the 1920s and 1930s, she is forced to ask a difficult question: Does she really surrender every piece of her life to the Lord? </p> <p> </p> <p>Drawing from her own heart-wrenching story of redemption, <em>A Promise Kept</em> is Robin Lee Hatcher’s emotionally charged thanksgiving to a God who answers prayers—in His own time and His own ways.</p> <p>"Hatcher’s latest is an uplifting and heartwarming story about the power of faith to set people free from the pain of their pasts.
