"Coming soon from Maria T. Henriksen, Author, Not Again Morgan's Story. This story is a beautifully written story about a Christian junior in college in the 1980's facing challenges that test her faith. I love the inclusion of scripture which help Morgan cope with adverse situations. There are intense scenes and suspense along with tender moments adding to the story. The characters are well defined and not always likeable. I highly recommend this well written, sensitive and inspiring story which is written from the author's heart." Carol Nauss, ARC Reviewer

The Railroad Tycoon Rescue Book Description
Tired of only being wanted for his money, and with an urgent need to marry to keep an inheritance, Cory applies for a mail-order bride through his cousin's agency. He tells himself he'll let her know before their marriage that he's actually wealthy. After all, he doesn't want to start off their marriage with a lie.
After her parents' death, Etta has had to sell almost everything she owns to survive. Now, the man who owns the mortgage on her home makes another demand. She will marry him, or else. It's desperation that urges her to fill out a mail-order bride application, and sneak away under false pretenses. Etta plans to tell her intended about her situation before she's married. But things don't work out quite as planned, when the train she's traveling on derails and she's hurt.
Now, with the past catching up to them both, an unwelcome visitor, and an accusation, Cory and Etta might not get the happy ending they were looking for.
