Courage and faith in the face of danger

The Doctor’s Newfound Family by Valerie Hansen

Sara Beth Reese has vowed to clear the name of her murdered father, and she’ll face any obstacle to achieve her goal. Orphaned and alone in San Francisco—except for the three younger brothers in her care—she needs Dr. Cole Hayward’s protection, whether she’ll admit it or not. And as danger escalates, Cole will do everything necessary to make this newfound family his to love and protect for a lifetime.

Mission of Hope by Allie Pleiter

Witnesses throughout San Francisco report a masked man in black is bringing supplies—and badly needed hope—to homeless earthquake survivors. He could be a man of wealth or a working-class man with courage as great as his faith. But the masked messenger will need more than a miracle to escape those on his trail and win the spirited society belle risking everything to save him…

Valerie Hansen is the pen name of Valerie Whisenand.

Librarian Note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name. See this thread for more information.

Although I have been a published author since the mid 1980s, I have been writing women's Christian fiction almost exclusively since 1999.

There is a longer, more detailed bio on my website so there's no need for me to repeat all that here. Right now, I write for all three Love Inspired lines, Romance, Suspense and Historical. I'm delighted to have been included that broadly and besides, it keeps me so busy that I stay out of trouble. Well, mostly.

You'll find me on the LI Historical blog as well as other LI features. If I try to do much more I won't have time to write my books!

The Doctor's Newfound Family: When Sara Beth Reese's mother and stepfather are murdered, she is determined to save the family home, clear her stepfather's name and protect her younger stepbrothers! I think Sara was more naive than brave as she continually put herself in danger! San Francisco was not a safe place to be in the mid 1800s. Without young Dr Taylor Hayward looking out for her, she would not have survived!

Mission of Hope: A masked man in black takes supplies to homeless people after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. Quinn is looking for the owner of the locket he found in the ruble.

You will enjoy these stories of early San Francisco. I received a complimentary book from the author. This is my honest opinion.
