Hey everyone! Guess what? I’m sick. And in addition to being sick, I started a job this week that I wasn’t planning on starting (it’s a good thing, but it means my schedule was screwy). Basically, there is no “post about Scotland” … yet. I’ve been too tired and too sick to write it. That said, for the scavenger hunt, this post had to go up, so here it is.
[A Post About Scotland Shall Be Here Some Day, I Hope! Sorry that it’s not here yet. My throat hurts! And I worked this week before said throat started hurting. 😛 So yeah.]
[EDIT as of 5/18/22 – this is not happening. Move on and forgive me for my unprofessionalism.]
About the Book
Ivy Knight feels that her life may never start. Though her loving family assures her that her place in the world is close to home, she still feels a push to move out of her comfort zone. Hoping against hope, she travels to her old friends at McCale House, seeking a purpose.
Jordy McAllen has just returned to Scotland after his education in London. He fears that what everyone has always said about him may be true: he can’t be a good doctor, let alone a good man. Determined to prove himself, Jordy snatches up the opportunity to become the doctor in the village of Keefmore near his parents’ farm.
When an old friend decides to travel to Keefmore and visit a relative, Ivy follows. She soon finds herself drawn to Jordy, but as their attraction grows, they both face doubts. A relationship between the two of them feels improbable—and might just require a step of impossible faith.
