A Second Chance at a Forbidden Love
Author: Keith Albrecht
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1639615164
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
Ed watched as Sasha and Solu rode away from the Krehbiel farm on their horse they called Buck. He had to wonder, were they as happily married as he and Katrina were? Would he ever see Sasha again? Probably not if they were moving all the way to Montana to be teachers there. Then he felt a little guilty; although he loved Katrina with all his heart, he had to admit that he still had feelings for Sasha and wondered if she still had any feelings for him. In the next few months, Sasha and Solu found themselves very busy in the School of Higher Education studying to be teachers. Occasionally Sasha thought of Ed and wondered what he was doing but always quickly pushed those thoughts aside and went on with her busy activities at school. Ed too occasionally thought of Sasha and wondered what she was doing but, he had little time to dwell on those thoughts since a tragic and unfortunate event left him the single parent of a beautiful little girl he named Abigale or Abbi for short. Ed was a wonderful daddy for his daughter, but she needed and wanted more than anything a real mommy to tuck her in bed at night and tell her she loved her. How was Ed to raise a child by himself when he was so busy at times with his thriving new business of custom wheat binding? Then one day when Ed and Abbi were at the cemetery to wish Katrina a happy birthday, a young teenage boy came riding a horse to deliver a telegram for Ed. When Ed saw who the telegram was from, he was so excited he could hardly read what it said.
