A Writing in the Sand
by J.M. Kirkley
GALVESTON, TEXAS, 1900. A GOVERNESS. TWO MEN. AND THE STORM THAT CHANGED EVERYTHING.
Twenty-year-old Emily Cleburne seizes the offer to become governess, but chasing her dream places her in the path of the deadliest hurricane in American history.

Emily is desperate to succeed after her father thrusts her from home with no lifeline. With little experience, what she lacks in confidence, she makes up for in grit.

Nathan Chambers, a reporter with a secret, pursues Emily’s affections. Drawn in, Emily agrees to keep what he reveals confidential, thereby threatening her position and clashing with her integrity. Colin Hensleigh, a young minister, challenges her while proving himself a trusted friend.

Emily’s alarm grows as the catastrophic storm bears down on the island. She cannot foresee what will happen and who will survive.

When the Great Storm reduces Emily’s plans to rubble, adversity tests her character and faith in unimaginable ways. Will the teacher stand firm when all else gives way, or will she fail the test?
