The Winds of Promise Marilyn King

It's 1841, and after ten long years, Grace Bartholomew and Kindra Talmaze are reunited. Both women have families of their own, and hearts are warmed when their children meet. Long after they've parted, friendship has bonded their daughters, Kit and Damaris; it's a friendship that will carry them over the high seas and for years to come. Both families experience devastation that comes with the planters' way of life. All the while, impending doom is broiling. Enemies wait in the shadows to turn lives upside down. Jule Spade awaits Tia's release from prison and suspects she has something that belongs to him. Scoot Sweeny has a secret he's carefully hiding. Stanley Bernard's scorn for those who forced him to leave Kindra Hall is brewing. Turmoil is rumbling on the horizon; hearts are torn. Lives are ripped apart in ways no one could have seen coming. Denzel's hunt for Kindra in a foreign land is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Can he hang on through the fires of diversities? Strangers show up at River Oak, looking for something Grace is sure her family doesn't have. Uncertainties as dark as storm clouds loom over their plantation. With havoc taking place in all directions, can Tia find real love for the first time? Will she reach out to a God she isn't sure exists? The winds of change teach Kindra to trust in God in ways she would never have seen coming, but The Winds of Promise keeps her going. Will she see her family again?
