If you’re a fan of Christian Historical fiction, no introduction is really needed to this week’s guest, Tracie Peterson. She has written well over 130 books and has more to come. Join us as we chat about her writing day and how she puts a book together, what her research for Remember Me was like, what it was like to be an acquisitions editor at Barbour Publishing years ago, and my patrons get to hear her thoughts on one day hanging up her laptop.
Remember Me by Tracie Peterson
From the Yukon to Seattle, the hope of a new beginning waits just around the corner.
Addie Bryant is haunted by her past of heartbreak and betrayal. After her beau, Isaac Hanson, left the Yukon, she made a vow to wait for him. When she’s sold to a brothel owner after the death of her father, Addie manages to escape with the hope that she can forever hide her past and the belief that she will never have the future she’s always dreamed of.
Years later, Addie has found peace in her new life as a photographer, training Camera Girls to operate and sell the Brownie camera. During the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Expo in Seattle, Addie is reunited with Isaac, but after the path her life has taken, she’s afraid to expose the ugliness of her former life and to move toward the future they had pledged to each other.
When her past catches up with her, Addie must decide whether to run or to stay and face her wounds in order to embrace her life, her future, and her hope in God.
“Forgiveness, faith, and love conquer all in this tender tale from the enchanted pen of bestselling author Tracie Peterson.”
