The Lost Heiress (Ladies of the Manor, #1)

by Roseanna M. White

“Love is always a miracle. Especially in this world.”

“Let them think what they will. I will be who I am, and I will make no apologies. And if that means I eschew society and forgo the marriage mart . . . well, what a shame.”

“But God does not just instruct us to forgive—He instructs us to trust. To trust that, even though life hurts us, He will take care of us. That even if we lose the ones we love, He will sustain us through it.”

“I lost her. I lost you. And it brought me to my knees. It tormented me for years and made me shut myself off from society. But it brought me to my knees—and the Lord was there, through it all, supporting me. The Lord was there, shaping me through my loss into the man He wanted me to be.”

You are meant to be sunshine and tempests, not dreary fog and rain.”

We have our faith to bind us, not just our love.

Men made their own choices. And as some of them chose life, others chose death, chose evil. God could stop all the evil, all the violence, but if He did, He’d be rendering their choices for Him meaningless. But God did have a hand in this world.
