Second best. She was always second best. Meg knew she couldn’t compete with her sister Marlys. She’d quit trying a long time ago. So she was only vaguely disappointed when handsome homesteader Royce Ferguson transferred his affections to her beautiful and flirtatious sister. But when Royce left town for the Wildrose Territory on the Canadian frontier with marriage on his mind, Meg wondered if Marlys would honor her pledge to follow him. And just as Meg suspected, it seemed that Marlys had finally made a promise she couldn’t keep. What’s a second-best girl to do when she believes the man of her dreams is about to suffer a broken heart? Should Meg take the chance of a lifetime, risking yet another rejection? With only her faith to see her through, Meg sets out to find her future. In the process, she discovers that dreams come true in the most unexpected places. Paper.

About the Author

Ruth Vogt Glover was born and raised in Canada’s central Saskatchewan bush country, of which she writes in this in-spirational frontier romance novel, The Shining Light. ’The book is placed in the small farms of Donny-brook, the school district where I was bornnear Mac-dowall and Prince Albert,’ she explains. ’It was a hard life for adults, but for me as a child it was close to bliss. It is a wonderful place.’ The author moved to Vancouver, Wash., in her late teens. It was in Vancouver she met Hal Glover, who fin-ished his term in the Army and married Ruth in 1940. The couple attended Pasadena College (now Point Loma Nazarene College) together, where Rev. Glover earned a master of arts degree. He has pastored churches in California and the northwestern United States for many years, while Mrs. Glover has pursued her love of Christian writing. That love has resulted in contributions to over 50 Christian publications, including the Christian Standard, Decision, the Herald of Holiness, Home Life, Light and Life, the National Christian Reporter, Standard, the Sunday Digest, Vital Christianity, War Cry, and the Wesleyan Advocate.
