Poppy's Prayers - Paperback

by Kirsten Osbourne (Author)

Poppy Smith, the schoolteacher at the one-room schoolhouse in Clover Creek has been praying for a husband for a long time. She loves teaching, but she wants to marry and have children, like most women her age.

When Jacob Alexander settles near Poppy's family, she is thrilled when he decides to court her. He's everything she dreamed of and so much more. Within a month of meeting, they marry, and she's certain they will live happily ever after.

Not long after they marry, Jacob withdraws and it's as if he's living in a land of his own, not noticing her. When she realizes she's expecting a baby, things get better...for a time.

Poppy isn't certain what is happening, but she knows he's not the man she married. Together, they must find a way to work through their doubts and fears if they are to have a happy marriage.
