Texas Angel
Angela Toussaint Hearne thought her devastating secret would be safe -- after all, her dark hair and tanned complexion merely hinted at French ancestry, and her infant daughter Emma was as fair as her father. But that did little to save her after the revelation that Angela's deceased mother was one-quarter African and a run away slave. All of her descendants are now the property of a cruel and depraved man eager to recover his lost goods. Disowned and shamed by the Hearne family, Angela and her child find themselves journeying as slaves to the wild frontier of Texas. Benjamin Sinclair is a fiery evangelist newly arrived from Boston, determined to convert the lawless Texans with a strong dose of retribution. When Angela discovers God's truth in a borrowed New Testament, her fledgling faith shows Benjamin that the God he serves may have a better way of drawing the people of Texas to himself. A riveting, thought-provoking read that brings to life the courageous pioneers of the Rio Grande. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
