Sneak Peek at Abigail’s New Hope from Mary Ellis
Download Chapter 1
“Come help us, mamm! ” The excited voice of six-year-old Laura floated across the lawn. Abby grinned, watching her daughter and four-year old son, Jake, chase lightning bugs through the grass with open jelly jars in hand. Despite the industrious eff orts of the kinner, the fireflies successfully evaded capture to blink and glow another night?
“Why are you two off the porch? You both were already washed for bed.” Abby walked back from the barn with her palms perched on her hips.
She glanced up as a squeak from the screen door signaled the arrival of the final Graber family member, her ehemann of ten years. “I thought you were reading them a story,” she said with a sly smile.
Daniel slicked a hand through his thick hair, his hat nowhere in sight. Then he braced calloused palms against the porch rail. “Relax, wife. That grass looks pretty clean from where I’m standing. You won’t have to start from scratch. Didn’t it rain just the other day?” His smile deepened the lines around his eyes. With the setting sun glinting off his sun-burnished nose, he looked as mischievous as one of their children.
