Beauty in the Making

About this book

RITA(R) Award Winner for Best Inspirational Romance (as Patterns of Love) She couldn't see the beauty God was creating within. But he did. Plain, practical, and always overshadowed by her beautiful younger sisters, Inga Linberg has long accepted that romance is for other women. As the dependable daughter of a Swedish pastor in rural Iowa, she expects to spend her life quietly serving others. Until an unexpected request changes everything. When Dirk Bridger seeks someone to care for his ailing mother and two orphaned nieces, Inga impulsively volunteers. Leaving the safety of home behind, she finds herself in a house burdened by grief, where laughter has become rare and hope even rarer. Dirk has sacrificed his own dreams to keep his family's struggling dairy farm alive. The last thing he wants is another responsibility-or a saintly pastor's daughter reminding him of everything he's given up. Yet Inga's kindness begins providing more than meals or the quilts she sews. Piece by piece, she brings warmth back into a household that has nearly forgotten how to love. But new wounds, impossible dreams, and Inga's lifelong belief that she is too plain to be truly cherished threaten the future that could be theirs. As hearts begin to heal and a patchwork family is stitched together, Inga and Dirk discover that the beauty God is creating is far beyond anything they'd imagined.
