      “Tori, I want you to meet someone special.”

      Claudia gestured to Jake. “This is Jacob Holland, the eldest son of my dearest friends. Jake, this is my niece, Victoria Lerner.”

      Lerner? Of course. Did he really expect anything different?

      The whisper of a memory filtered through his mind, but he forced it back into the dark corner where it belonged. Remembering equaled pain, and he’d had enough heartache to last a lifetime.

      “Victoria.” Her name slipped past his lips in a mix of a whisper and a gasp.

      Victoria’s clover-green eyes tangled with his. She wore a pink sundress that complemented her pale skin. She lifted her hand. “H-hi, Jake.”

      So maybe she wasn’t as confident as she appeared.

      Good.

      He didn’t need to be the only one feeling like he’d been kicked in the gut.

      She smiled, creasing the dimples in her cheeks that could charm an ornery bull.

      But not him.

      Not anymore. He was immune. Had to be. It was his only protection against the devastation she was capable of causing.

      Dear Reader,

      Growing up down the road from my grandparents’ dairy farm, my favorite memories are filled with feeding calves, the rope swing in the hay barn, large family gatherings, and the values of faith, family and hard work instilled by my grandparents, my mom, aunts and uncles.

      In Season of Hope, as a former Marine, Jake wants to honor the friend he lost by creating a Fatigues to Farming program, which will allow veterans with disabilities to learn farming in order to start their own small businesses. This idea is based on actual programs around the United States. Farmers are the backbone of America, and our veterans have sacrificed much to protect our freedoms. Both of these noble occupations need to be respected and honored.

      When I created this series, I wanted to show how the Holland family uses their faith to find hope in heartache. Faith is believing without seeing, and when we’re walking through the valley of darkness, it can be difficult to see the Light, but no matter what challenges we’re facing, God is with us every step of the way, waiting to lead us through those difficult seasons. Hold onto the Hope.

      I love hearing from my readers, so please email me at [email protected]. Visit my website at lisajordanbooks.com to learn more about upcoming novels and events.

      Be blessed,

       Lisa Jordan
