Product Description
Raised by her aunt and uncle at the rectory in the small English village of Grimston Way, lovely Evy Varley remembers little of her parents and nothing of South Africa-the land where she was orphaned during the Zulu War of 1878. But when Sir Rogan Chantry, the arrogant and handsome son of the local squire, accuses Evy's mother of stealing the infamous Kimberly Black Diamond, Evy sets out to prove him wrong and clear her mother's name. However, secrets abound from the diamond mines of South Africa to the halls of her own beloved rectory. A stunned Evy finds that her own aunt and uncle may have concealed disturbing truths about her family, and the rakish Sir Rogan has his own reasons to seek the Black Diamond. Now, faced with a dangerous past and an uncertain future, Evy must draw upon her wits and her faith to pursue TOMORROW'S TREASURE. As the son of the squire of Grimston Way, aristocrat Rogan Chantry has fought hard to win his independence from Sir Julien Bley and the British South Africa Company. Now, his pursuit of a mysterious deposit of gold, marked on a map willed to him by his murdered uncle, Henry Chantry, is challenged by a new complication, the impending British colonization of South Africa. Can Sir Rogan find the gold in the midst of escalating tensions among the native tribesmen, the missionaries sent to win them and the new colonists? Meanwhile, in England, Evy, the woman Rogan now loves, is headed for a brave yet dangerous confrontation with Henry's Killer-but at what price? With so much against Rogan and Evy, a reunion seems improbable, if not impossible. Can YESTERDAY'S PROMISE hold them faithful to the hope of future freedom and a victorious love? Evy's marriage to Rogan is all she had hoped it would be-until she finds out that she is pregnant with a honeymoon baby. Fearing that Rogan won't allow her to travel while she is expecting, Evy plots to keep her pregnancy secret in order to accompany him to South Africa. Her thoughts are not only for her
