  Following the events of Cristina of Aspen Aisle, Will and Evangeline find themselves enraptured by persistent beauty they never dreamed of, and facing challenges beyond their strength. Evangeline of Sky Valley is a story of exuberant joys, laughter, loss, doubt, and the hidden glory of life in the midst of ashes. 
  "Kahlil Gibran wrote, 'What is it to work with love? It is to weave cloth with threads drawn from your heart, even as if your beloved were to wear that cloth.' This is the quality that I find in this writing. Case weaves together words in a cloth fit to be worn by our King. Imagine the biblical Song of Songs written as a contemporary novel. If that notion appeals to you, you'll love this book. Ebullient, scintillating, tintinnabulous—what words could possibly describe the crackling freshness of language and the chaste, holy feelings unleashed in this book? Hardly ever in a work of fiction—or even nonfiction—will you read a truer, purer, more uplifting account of love and marriage as God intended it than in Evangeline of Sky Valley." —Mike Mason, bestselling author of The Mystery of Marriage and Champagne for the Soul
