Title: The Hesitant Heiress, Book 1 of The Everstone Chronicles
Author: Dawn Crandall
Publisher: Whitaker House
Release Date: September 8, 2015
ABOUT THE BOOK
After being
unjustly expelled from the Boston Conservatory of Music, Amaryllis Brigham sees
her dreams of founding a music academy in her hometown of Seattle, Washington,
disappearing before her very eyes. Now, the only way to achieve her goal comes
with high stakes for someone set on avoiding men as much as possible: Marry
within the year to inherit the immense fortune of her estranged grandmother.
Amaryllis reluctantly moves in to her aunt’s Boston home and rubs shoulders
with fashionable society. Despite her own misgivings, she soon finds herself
quickly falling in love with the most unlikely of men—Nathan Everstone, whose
family is linked to her mother’s tragic death. However, Nathan turns out to be
much more than he seems… and everything she never knew she wanted. But can she
ever really trust an Everstone man?

Author: Dawn Crandall
Publisher: Whitaker House
Release Date: October 6, 2015
ABOUT THE BOOK
One accidental kiss from Lawry Hampton. That was all it
took to throw Meredyth Summercourt’s world upside-down. Determined to marry the
ever-elusive Vance Everstone, she simply doesn’t have the time or the desire to
fall for her best friend. But Vance is out of the country, and Lawry is at her
side nearly every day, teaching her what the world is like through the eyes of
a little orphan girl named Wynn. Now Meredyth can’t deny that what’s holding
her to Vance is nothing more than a desire to redeem herself from her past.
Will she marry Vance once he returns from Europe? Or will she be strong enough
to break free from the tangled web she’s convinced she deserves, and accept
that God’s plan for her life includes redemption...and, quite possibly, Lawry
Hampton?
