Along Came Love (2006)
Single mother Lauren Woodman returns to Vermont to renovate her family's historic property and open an antique and art gallery. She longs to build a secure life for herself and her young son, leave her past mistakes behind, and avoid any romantic entanglements in the future.
When Lauren crashes her car into a snow bank, she is rescued by a longhaired man she assumes is a homeless wanderer. Wes Evans is actually an ex-missionary who considers himself a failure for buckling under in the face of persecution and imprisonment for his illegal missionary work in the Middle East. He senses God has sent him to Vermont to help Lauren and her son, but he is torn by his desire to keep his past a secret.
As their friendship deepens to romance, Wes is forced to make difficult choices that involve great sacrifice in order to protect Lauren and her son. Lauren and Wes discover new dimensions of God's grace and forgiveness as they put their love, their faith, and their very lives on the line for each other.

Hi Friends,
My name is Carrie and I am a Christian fiction writer. I am the co-author of WEDDED BLISS?, KISS THE BRIDE, BIG APPLE CHRISTMAS, and the author of ALONG CAME LOVE.
If you enjoy reading inspiring, heartwarming stories about everlasting love, enduring friendships, and families united and held together by God's love, then I believe you'll enjoy my books. Please visit my website for more info: www.carrieturansky.com.
I have been married to Scott for almost 30 years. He is a pastor, the author of several parenting books, and the co-founder of the National Center for Biblical Parenting. Learn more at www.biblicalparenting.org.
We have five great kids ages 25 - 20 and two adorable grandsons. I homeschooled my kids for all or part of their school years, and now I am happy to have finally graduated!
Besides writing I enjoy reading, gardening, cooking, walking around the lake near my home, and spending time with friends and family. Oh yes, and staying connected with my ACFW friends.
I look forward to getting to know you!
Blessings,
Carrie
