Laurean Brooks

Journey To Forgiveness Laurean Brooks

It's 1938 and times are hard. The Great Depression strikes the South, forcing many residents to sell their farms. When boll weevils infest her family's cotton crop, Jenny Largent's only option is to accept an invitation to join her aunt in Chicago to seek employment. Her family depends on her. At the Kankakee depot, Jenny confronts a handsome, blond stranger over her missing vanity case. She retrieves her case and relaxes. But not for long. The same obnoxious man takes the pulpit in her aunt's church to coerce the congregation into giving to his "worthy cause." Tornadoes struck a small Illinois town, leaving it in ruins. Austin Brady begs the church for money to rebuild the town. When Jenny's abusive father deserted the family, he left her with emotional scars. She vows never to marry. Will Jenny ask Austin the tough questions that will ultimately make or break their relationship? Will she obey God's nudging to reconcile with her estranged father?
