Praise for Trial of Courage
"A story that brings to light the need for love and human connection, the importance of remembering the past, and the presence of the Lord throughout the events big and small of our lives."
​
"I loved the history in this book; couldn’t wait to read this one! Always looked to make sure I wasn’t at the end because I loved it so much!"
"I bought the first two books and read them quickly. I couldn't put them down! It was torture to wait for the third but it was worth the wait! The author takes you on a fantastic journey that will tug on your heartstrings. My son asked me, "Why are you reading that if it keeps making you cry?" I told him that great literature should provoke emotion and this story does just that. The characters are so well-developed that you feel you know them personally and you really feel with them and for them. I wish the journey didn't have to end!"
