Hope's Promise

For better, for worse, in sickness and in health... A solemn vow to stand together.

Jake Bennett is finally wed to the love of his life, Jessica Hale–but he isn't convinced she won't leave him. Life is a constant struggle for the Bennetts as they battle drought and live in fear of raids on Southerners, and he is not sure that Jess knew what she was getting herself into when she married him.

Jess, however, despairs for another reason–she is unable to conceive a child.

While trying to prove their unconditional love for each other, the Bennetts must defend against attacks on the Paiutes, the doubts that haunt them both, and an unknown force that threatens to destroy all they hold dear. Together, they must stand in faith through betrayal, danger, and barrenness, trusting that God will reward their hopes for a better future.
