Prelude To A Promise

Rebecca Sutherland fell in love with her best friend, Jacob Walker in "The Promise". But before Jacob, there was Henry Olsen, a kind, gentle man who was twenty years her senior. She was only fourteen when she met Henry and much too young to even consider him as a mate. Nearly three years later, Rebecca's father dies of heart disease, and their good friend Henry is the logical one to help Owen's wife and daughter run the farm. Of course, it would be indecent if he were to simply move in without marrying Rebecca first. What starts out as a marriage of convenience quickly turns into an all-consuming love-until Henry's mysterious illness threatens to tear them apart.
