Suddenly a Family
After Rena Livingston’s secret fiancé leaves her pregnant and unwed, her mayor father insists upon a marriage of convenience to Sheriff Scott Braden. Though his motivations are as much about protecting his political career as her reputation, Rena is grateful the standoffish sheriff agrees to the arrangement. At least her child will grow up without the burden of her shame...
Scott believed his one chance at love fled with his ex-fiancée, but caring for Rena and her unborn baby exposes a vulnerability he vowed he’d never allow again. When the upcoming election stirs nasty gossip, though, Scott must choose between his commitment to the town and his growing love for Rena and the baby.
ANGEL MOORE fell in love with romance in elementary school when she read the story of Robin Hood and Maid Marian. Who doesn’t want to escape to a happily-ever-after world? Married to her best friend, she has two wonderful sons, a lovely daughter-in-law and three grandkids. She loves sharing her faith and the hope she knows is real because of God’s goodness to her.

“Do you like it?” Scott asked.
In an instant, Rena was on her knees beside the cradle, running her hand along the curves of the wood. “Like it? It’s perfect.”
He laughed. “It’s hardly perfect. It’s not even finished. Be careful not to get a splinter.” He pulled her hand away from the rough wood.
She looked up at him. “Will you put it in my room when you finish?” The hope in her eyes was all the thanks he could ever want for his labor.
“Of course.” He realized he still held her hand. “The hard part is over. Only the fine work is left to do.”
The cradle gave tangible evidence of the impending arrival of the baby...another man’s baby. Scott had built his home with every intention of marrying and raising a family to carry his name and tend his land for centuries to come. Louise’s betrayal had killed that dream.
Tonight, he would bury it in the sawdust at his feet, while he sanded off the rough edges of a cradle he’d built for the child of another man.
Sometimes forgiving yourself is the hardest thing to do.
Thank you for reading Husband by Arrangement. I hope you enjoyed this story of restoration to a relationship with God. Abandoning her faith made Rena vulnerable and brought pain to her and those she loved. The faith and patience of a loving man make this story a favorite of mine.
Rena accepts responsibility for her actions. She even accepts God’s forgiveness but struggles to forgive herself.
Facing the consequences of our actions on a daily basis can lead to guilt. God wants us to be repentant. Then He forgives, and He wants us to forgive ourselves.
I’d love to hear from you. You can reach me through my website at angelmoorebooks.com. You’ll find the latest news and links to connect with me on social media.
May God bless and help you to forgive yourself and others.
