    About this ebook

    Burn survivor Savvy McCord can't even look at her scars without wincing, so she doesn't blame her best friend for running away, but when Beck Harmon's disappearing act spans years, Savvy relinquishes dreams of love and marriage. When Beck returns and dreams of forever blossom in Savvy's heart, she worries he'll leave again. Can Beck convince Savvy that he's changed and that her true beauty comes from her inner strength and faith? Will his idea to help burn victims regain their self-confidence restore Savvy's trust in him? Will love be what the wanderer needs to find peace for his hurting soul?

      Savvy McCord is a burn survivor and feels her scars make her unattractive and unworthy of love and marriage. What else can she think when Beck Harmon, her best friend and the man she’s loved forever, takes off after only seeing part of her scarring. He ran away and didn’t return. Beck Harmon has spent years running and searching for peace. Now he’s returned home a changed man and finds the connection with Savvy is still very strong. He has a heart for burn victims and wants Savvy to help him with his idea of how to minister to them. Savvy wants to help Beck but her feelings for him are still strong and she fears her heart will be broken again if he takes off. Can Beck convince Savvy that he’s a changed man and that he thinks she’s beautiful inside and out? Is Savvy willing to risk giving her heart again to the man that broke it apart all those years ago?Wow! Beck’s Peace is a wonderful soul-stirring story that you’ll think about long after you close the book. This is book 2 in the Harmon Heritage series and picks up where book 1 left off. I wasn’t sure at first if I was going to like Beck. I mean, he took off and hasn’t had any contact with Savvy at all and you feel her heartache. But the longer you read the more you realize that those years away (and the Lord) really changed him. I fell in love with Beck. He was such a neat guy and so romantic. I loved the way he handled his return and the way he was with Savvy. The interaction and dialog between them was outstanding. We got to know Savvy in Rori’s Healing and I thoroughly enjoyed seeing how her story played out. She is outwardly strong yet she has such a kind and tender heart. I love the way this story encourages burn victims to remember that who they are hasn’t changed because of their scars. In fact, we all have scars, it’s just some of us have ones you can’t see. We are reminded that man look on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. There are lots of tender moments woven throughout but there are also some humorous moments too, right when you need them. Beck’s Peace kept me quickly turning pages from beginning to end yet wanting to savor every moment. I labeled it as a favorite and one I would definitely recommend.Some Favorite Quotes:“Why did it always take something catastrophic to make a person long for what could have been? To make a person take stock of their blessings and realize what they’d given up or taken for granted?”“Savanna McCord, I have been from one end of this earth to the other. You are the most beautiful woman on the face of the planet. Don’t you ever believe otherwise.”For more information about this book or other books by Dora Hiers, I recommend you visit her website at dorahiers.com/.
