Bible Verse for Encouragement

Proverbs 10:21, NKJV The lips of the righteous will feed many, But fools die for lack of wisdom

New Book: Unforgotten, Released November 5th, 2024

Seven years ago, Bethanne Hostetler survived an attempted assault, and her attacker, Peter Miller, met an untimely end. Though she has found some peace, she is still haunted by the memory. So when her Englisher cousin, Candace, reveals that she has a stalker of her own, all of Bethanne’s old fears rush back.

Peter’s former best friend, Jay Byler, still can’t get over the fact that he did not protect Bethanne that fateful night. He can’t blame her for continuing to avoid him, but it hurts when the one you love can’t even look you in the eye. Will there ever come a day when Bethanne looks past the boy he used to be to see the man he’s become?

When Candace is crowned Miss Crittenden County, officer Ryan Mulaney becomes her escort to various events to protect her from the stalker. And while he knows this is just a job, the closer they work together, the harder it is to maintain a professional distance.

And when everyone’s worst fears are realized, all four of them will have to come together to prevent another tragedy.
