Faithful of Heart (A Minnesota Legacy, #1) by Tracie Peterson

 

When dedicated philanthropist Judith Stanford receives a summons from her estranged grandfather ordering her to come to Minneapolis to prove herself worthy of his inheritance, she is hesitant but can't ignore the potential of her grandfather's fortune to benefit her causes. And the only man to interest her since her husband's death lives in Minneapolis, leaving her hoping their paths will cross.

Roman Turner, a local physician with a heart for the poor, harbors a grudge against Judith's grandfather. Years ago, his unethical actions ruined Roman's family forever. When Roman meets Judith again, he is shocked to learn the woman he's thought about all these years is related to the one man he can't forgive.

As Judith tries to overcome the complicated history between the two families and disentangle her grandfather's tainted legacy, she begins to form a plan for reparation. But when it becomes clear someone else has nefarious intentions for the money, Judith's dreams of a new legacy are at risk.

My Review

This is the first book in a new series, A Minnesota Legacy. A Christian read that held me captive, and thus page turning for answers.
A young woman with such a heart for our Lord, and thus she lived her faith, and went about helping others.
Will being with an absent Grandfather change her? He is wealthy beyond thinking, and at the expense of others. Will she be accepted in this small community, once they know of her relationship?
We are offered a few suitors, and man that used to getting his own way, even to the end! Also some sweet romance!
This read is so beautifully written, I never wanted for it to end, but there will be another book in this series coming next year!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Bethany House, and was not required to give a positive review.
