Welcome...
... to a story. About how God can work in people's lives. In amazing ways.
Set in the 1960's, the loss of both parents in a car accident sends Peter to live with his godparents in a Cornish vicarage. There he meets only child, Janet – driven into a lesbian relationship by a cruel stepmother. For Peter, his new sister is a replacement mother. For Janet, he is the boyfriend of her dreams.
But this is no simple love story. The hunt for Peter’s long-lost sister takes him and Janet to Ireland, into the frightening life of Charlene, a Dublin prostitute.
Throughout the book, God guides these three teenagers along a roller-coaster of deeply moving experiences - some happy, some sad - to achieve his will for their lives.
A fairy-tale about a cuddly white-haired man in the clouds? Who dispenses warm comfortable feelings and happy-endings?
Not a bit! If you want that stuff, head over to the Mills and Boon website.
The Cornish Vicar's Daughter isn't an easy read - because it deals with real-life situations and the hurts they give. And it's not about a soft God who takes the pain away like Paracetamol. Rather one who chips away at our stubbornness to fashion us for an eternal life with him.
