The River Between

The river had brought him to her—would the river also keep them apart?

From the belvedere of her Alabama mansion on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, Lily watched for steamboats and dreamed of the man who would one day be united with her in mind and spirit. Torn between her duty to marry the handsome young socialite of her parents’ choosing and her love for a mysterious riverboat captain who was far beneath her social station, Lily turned to God’s Word for guidance. And as the tides of convention and the dangerous river swirled about her, she made a decision that would defy both.
