Stitched on My Heart: Delphina's Story: A Companion Christmas Novella

In a land on the brink of change, one woman must summon courage to claim the freedom she longs for. ~~ Born into slavery on a South Carolina plantation, Delphina’s quiet strength was shaped in hardship. As unrest spreads across the South and talk of secession stirs fear, she is torn from the only home she has known. Bennett, the disillusioned son of a plantation owner, carries her west, holding out the promise of freedom and new beginnings. ~~ But dreams shatter quickly. When Bennett dies suddenly, Delphina is left with nothing but her newborn daughter and the fear of being forced back into bondage. With no proof of marriage or freedom papers, she cannot protect herself—or her child. Hope arrives with the Shankel family, who welcome her despite society’s scorn. Survival demands more than shelter. Delphina must draw on her faith and resilience to carve a life beyond fear. ~~ Moses, a freedman marked by his own struggles, sees in Delphina a strength that humbles him. Though he has little, he offers loyalty, courage, and a love that could anchor them both—if she dares to trust it. Together, they face prejudice, loss, and the fragile beginnings of a new life, stitching hope into an uncertain world. ~~ Will Delphina find the courage to embrace love and freedom when both feel beyond reach? ~~ Inspirational Christmas Story - Christian Historical Romance - Standalone in the Discerning God’s Best series - Timeline: 1860–1861 ~~ Series order: Desire of My Heart; With All My Heart; Stitched on My Heart (novella); Matters of the Heart; Healing of the Heart; Written on My Heart; A Place to Belong (novella); Keeper of My Heart (preorder).
