Laurel Oke Logan

    Laurel Oke Logan, dcéra oceňovanej autorky kresťanskej fikcie Janette Oke, čerpá zo svojich skúseností z života na kanadskej prérii. Jej vlastné písanie je ovplyvnené výchovou v rodine, kde bola obklopená tromi bratmi, a následným životom s vlastnou rodinou. Spolu s manželom, s ktorým sa zoznámila počas štúdií, vychováva štyri deti a pritom si nachádza čas na písanie. Laurel sa podieľala na písaní životopisu svojej matky a venuje sa tiež výučbe písania pre stredoškolákov.

      When Beth Thatcher returns to Coal Valley, she has much to be excited about. She anticipates Jarrick's proposal of marriage and perhaps a spring wedding. The mine is expanding, and there are more schoolchildren than ever. But the town's rapid growth brings many challenges. A second teacher is assigned, and Beth finds herself going head-to-head with a very different philosophy of education--one that dismisses religion and rejects God. Fearful for the children who sit under the influence of Robert Harris Hughes, Beth struggles to know how to respond. At the same time, Beth wonders if Jarrick is considering a position at her father's company simply for her sake. Should she admit her feelings on the matter? Or keep silent and allow Jarrick to make up his own mind?
