Publisher Description

Acclaimed author Lori Wick is one of the best-selling Christian fiction authors in the world, with more than two and a half million copies of her books in print, including The Proposal (K1048). When Anne Gardiner slips off a ladder, she falls-quite literally-into the arms of a handsome stranger named Robert Weston. Anne's father decides the couple must marry immediately, but Robert isn't entirely fond of that plan. The Rescue is a moving story that shows how God's love can touch each person in a unique way.

"Excellent romantic read! Lori Wick's third shot at marriage of convenience was the best. I love Anne Gardiner's handling of the community around her and her eccentric father. I love Weston's tender care of his new wife, and his servant Mansfield's understanding of absolutely everything. I also love that all these names come straight out of Jane Austen books! Fun!"
