Out of the Ruins

"God, save her. I'll do anything. Just make her better. And You'd better be listening, God, because if You dare take her away . . . I'll never speak to You again." Abby Fischer doesn't know if God will answer her prayer for her dying sister. She doesn't know if miracles really happen. And she certainly doesn't know if the handsome Dr. Robert King, with his risky experimental treatment, is the one to remedy her doubts. When tragedy strikes and the mighty San Francisco earthquake shatters what is left of her heart, Abby wonders if God will hear her as she flees alone through burning streets. What will it take to show her that the One she doesn't want to love is the One whose love will save her? A shaky prayer. A shattered faith. A city in ruins. What - or who - will bring Abby back to God? "Out of the Ruins is a shining example of historical romance." - Lauraine Snelling, best-selling author "A historically rich and heart-wrenching glimpse into the San Francisco earthquake and the resilient faith, love, and spirit that rise from the ashes." - Julie Lessman, award-winning author of The Daughters of Boston and Winds of Change series "Karen Barnett masterfully weaves together heartfelt emotion, believable characters, and impressive research.
