Description
Gideon O'Riley has been given another chance at a life with Lonnie. But will the fight for her heart risk it all over again?After finally finding love with his sweet bride Lonnie, Gideon's heart was torn when a woman from his past claimed to be his true and rightful wife, forcing him away from his family. God's merciful hand saw Gideon through the heartache, and with Cassie's blessing, he is able to return home. But his journey back through the Blue Ridge Mountains will hold a trial he never anticipated. Meanwhile, Lonnie determines to seal off her heart from Gideon, convinced he is lost to her forever. Strengthening her resolve to move on is her growing fondness for the handsome Scotsman, Toby McKee--the young reverend she has come to care for deeply. His proposal of marriage offers a bright future for her and her young son. Yearning to allow joy back into her life, Lonnie must put aside the broken pieces of her heart that still love Gideon. When he returns to find her betrothed to another, he has to place his hope in God, trusting that the One who redeemed their love once can do it again. "Joanne has hit a home run with her Cadence of Grace series... With memorable characters and struggles aplenty, this is the kind of story that will have readers telling their friends, 'You've got to read these books.'"
--Lauraine Snelling, best-selling author of the Red River of the North series and Wild West Wind series

Reviews
Praise for My Hope Is Found
"A tender story, told with loving care, My Hope Is Found takes many a twist and turn, as Lonnie must choose between two good men. Her struggle is genuine, and the outcome remains deliciously uncertain until the joy-filled ending."
--Liz Curtis Higgs, New York Times best-selling author of Mine Is the Night "Joanne has hit a home run with her Cadence of Grace series, and this book wraps up the story nicely. But I was never sure of the ending--either man could have made her happy--until the end. With memorable characters and struggles aplenty, this is the kind of story that will have readers telling their friends, 'You've got to read these books.'"
--Lauraine Snelling, author of the Red River of the North series, the Wild West Wind series, along with Wake the Dawn and many other books "In My Hope is Found, God's grace and tender mercies bloom in the rugged hills of early 1900s Appalachia. The familiar characters of the Cadence of Grace series live out the delicious tension of romance and reason, heartache and hope--discovering the true measure of love and lasting peace. If you need a healthy dose of hope for a pesky case of hopelessness, this one is a must-read."
--Mesu Andrews, author of Love Amid the Ashes and winner of the 2012 ECPA Book of the Year, New Author
"Joanne has the rare talent of creating such compelling characters and story worlds that I wish her books would never end."
--Serena B. Miller, RITA Award-winning author of The Measure of Katie Calloway "This deeply moving conclusion to the Cadence of Grace series will captivate your heart and keep you turning pages. Once again Joanne Bischof brings her well-drawn characters and beautiful setting to life in an intricately woven tale of faith and love that will leave you wanting more. I highly recommend it!"
--Carrie Turansky, author of The Governess of Highland Hall "A soaring conclusion to the Cadence of Grace series! With lyrical phrasing, Joanne Bischof blends measures of faith, hope, and love into pitch-perfect, soul-stirring harmony sure to resonate in every reader's heart. Bravo!"
--Jocelyn Green, award-winning author of the Heroines Behind the Lines series
"In My Hope is Found, gifted storyteller Joanne Bischof writes of redemption and reconciliation. Her characters stepped off the page and into my heart as I held my breath over their heartbreaks, disappointed dreams, and ultimate choices, all skillfully woven through with spiritual truths. Bischof has found her calling as a writer."
--Beth K. Vogt, author of Catch a Falling Star "Amid the beauty of the Appalachians, Lonnie Sawyer O'Riley finds herself in an impossible situation created by her beloved Gideon's wild past. Having no choice but to give him up and move on, she clings to stubborn hope that all will yet be well, somehow. Like a mountain trail, the story winds through sunlight and shadow, through love and despair, with glimpses of grace at every turn. My Hope Is Found is another keeper from Joanne Bischof."
