      A Sister’s Vow

      To fulfill a promise made to her twin, Dr. Jaclyn LaForge opens a children’s clinic in Hope, New Mexico. She’s determined to prove to the community that she’s the doctor they need. But it’s not just the children of Hope who need healing. It’s the fractured town itself, including handsome widowed rancher Kent McCloy, who steps up to make her dream a reality. As they work together to renovate the clinic, two wary hearts are under construction, as well. Can sweet, stubborn Jaclyn show Kent that life—and love—are worth cherishing?

      “There’s a long way to go with this place, isn’t there?” Jaclyn’s voice was quiet, almost solemn. She stood, waiting for his answer as he locked the building.

      “It’ll be tough, but it can be done.”

      “You have enough on your plate. I don’t want to add to your burdens, Kent.”

      “I want to make this clinic happen, Jaclyn. I see it as sort of a rallying point for the people of Hope.”

      “You do? How?”

      “Your clinic isn’t part of the old system. It’s new, different. Maybe it can help undo past damage and end some of the bitterness. Maybe that’s God’s plan in all of this.”

      “Thank you for saying that, Kent. I admit I was a little discouraged when I came here tonight, but I feel reenergized now. You can’t know how much that means to me.” She stood on tiptoe and brushed her lips against his cheek. “You’re a wonderful man, Kent.”

      If only Kent could have a chance to start fresh, like Jaclyn. He’d do so many things differently.

      Maybe if he worked hard enough on her clinic, he could finally rise above his regrets.

      Dear Reader,

      Welcome to Love Inspired! We’re celebrating our 15th anniversary this month, and you’re invited to the party!

      Love Inspired Books began in September 1997, offering readers inspirational contemporary romances. Fifteen years later, Love Inspired has never wavered from our promise to our readers; we are proud to publish short contemporary romances that feature Christian men and women facing the challenges of life and love in today’s world.

      In honor of our anniversary, we are showcasing some of our top authors in September. Irene Hannon, Arlene James and Lois Richer were part of the original lineup in 1997, and we’re supremely blessed that they are still writing for us in 2012. Jillian Hart and Margaret Daley have been part of the Love Inspired family since the early 2000s. And newcomer Mia Ross rounds out the month. We hope you enjoy these sweet stories full of home, family and love.

      As a special thank-you to our readers, each book this month contains a bonus story. Give them a try, and we know you’ll find our authors the very best in Christian romance!

      Thank you for reading Love Inspired.

      Blessings,
