Love and Passion

by Andrew Heath

After Pain, After Loss, After Immeasurable Suffering, Is True Love like the Storybooks Talk About Even Possible?

A 20,000-word Christian Romance for Teens

Emily Johnson is a 23-year-old woman living in her father’s house and longing to meet the man of her dreams. In her small town, however, the prospects seem slim, and her overbearing father only makes matters worse.

Emily desires more than anything to find a man of passion, but also one of virtue. Someone who will give her the wholesome life she desires, but also a life of excitement and adventure. She longs to see the world, to travel to unknown places. Little does she know, however, she will soon meet a much simpler—and broken—man who will offer her even more than she could ever desire.

Meet Jim Forrester

Jim has come to work on Emily’s aging father’s farm, offering much needed help to a man who simply can’t do it all on his own anymore. Jim seems plain enough, ever attentive to his work, respectful to Emily and her father—despite his perfect abs and muscular arms as the sweat drips off his chest while he works. But there’s just something in this smoldering man’s dark eyes that reveals an even darker past that Emily is determined to get to the bottom of.

Jim won’t open up to her at first, but eventually he lets down his guard, and the two become friends, even under the watchful and disapproving eye of Emily’s overprotective father.

Emily’s Untamed Desire

Emily decides she wants nothing more than a life of happiness with Jim, but Jim’s past might just block the way. Perhaps the man is incapable of love after all he has gone through. And besides that, Emily’s father will do everything in his power to stop this budding romance in its tracks.

Will Emily find the love she has always wanted in a man like Jim? Will Jim be able to trust and love a woman—or even God—ever again? Will Emily’s father come to accept a man he believes to be so far beneath him and his family?
