title: Across the Cotton Fields
author: Ashley, Diane; McCarver, Aaron
description: Alexandra Lewis's father has been exposed as a thief and killed in a shootout. Her grandmother insists that she carry out her duty to the family by marrying a wealthy man, regardless of whether she loves him. And Alexandra cannot understand how a loving God could allow all this to happen.
  
  Jeremiah LeGrand dreams large and needs a wife who shares his vision -- certainly not someone like the beautiful but shallow debutante, Alexandra Lewis.
  
  When Alexandra learns of a plot to destroy Jeremiah's home and fields, will she find a way to warn this man she has come to love?
