Traded for One Hundred Acres (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950015863)

Traded for One Hundred Acres is a real love story based on events that happened in the early 1800s.

Savannah Bowen, a beautiful sixteen-year-old, learns that her father has traded her hand in marriage to thirty-year-old Jonah Bell, for one hundred acres of land.

She is to travel with Jonah from Georgia to Arkansas by covered wagon, tending his three-week-old infant daughter, whose mother Clara, has just passed away in childbirth.

What Jonah doesn't know is that Savannah has always watched him from afar and dreamed of what it would be like to be in Clara's place.

From the very beginning, Jonah makes it clear to Savannah that she could never own his heart, because it would always belong to Clara.

Savannah's faith in God is strong, but Jonah has lost all faith with the death of his beloved wife.

In this life-affirming story, Savannah's loving heart and faith will be tested sorely. But sometimes God works in mysterious ways to bring people back to Him.
