The first book of the series is slated for release in February 2014. Spencer also has signed for a three-book historical series set in Cañon City in the 1800s. There also will be a sign-up and drawing to win a gift basket containing items reflective of events mentioned in the book. The first 10 people purchasing the book will receive a signature glass boot bookmark. Saturday at Words of Life Christian Bookstore, 615 Main St. Spencer will host a new release and book-signing event from 3 to 5 p.m. “Sometimes suffering is involved, and in Eli and Laura’s case, they must decide if they want God - and each other - enough.” “Key to the story’s premise is a scriptural promise that the Lord will make all things new,” she said. The heroine, Spencer said, is Laura, who struggles with loss and each of them wrestles with God’s offer of restoration and second chances. “The story deals with his issues of feeling less than whole.” “Eli, the hero, is a composite of wounded veterans I know,” Spencer said. Eli and Laura have a chance to fill the empty places in each other’s heart, but pride and fear threaten to keep them from trusting God and finding the love of a lifetime. But the battle-scarred soldier is a world away from the carefree boy he once was. The novel features Eli Hawthorne, a man who never gave up hope that someday Laura Bell would return to their small ranching community in the California foothills.
