Sneak peek at Francine Rivers' Her Mother's Hope

It has been quite a wait for a new book from Francine Rivers but you only have to hang in there until March, 2010 when it releases from Tyndale House. I have no doubt, Her Mother's Hope will be worth the wait!

Enjoy!

The first in an epic two-book saga by beloved author Francine Rivers, this sweeping story explores the complicated relationships between mothers and daughters over several generations.

Near the turn of the 20th century, fiery Marta leaves Switzerland determined to find life on her own terms. Her journey takes her through Europe and finally lands her with children and husband in tow in the central valley of California. Marta’s experiences convince her that only the strong survive.

Hildie, Marta’s oldest daughter, has a heart to serve others, and her calling as a nurse gives her independence, if not the respect of her mother. Amid the drama of WWII, Hildie marries and begins a family of her own. She wants her daughter never to doubt her love—but the challenges of life conspire against her vow.

Each woman is forced to confront her faulty but well-meaning desire to help her daughter find her God-given place in the world.

Oh boy! Can hardly wait. Epic saga are two of my favorite words applied to contemporary novels! (Even though they'll contain some history.) Love Francine Rivers' contemporary novels and of course Redeeming Love is legendary.
