Free (nook/Kindle/iTunes/ePub) At Every Turn [Xtian 1910s Car Racing Drama w/Romance]
At Every Turn by Anne Mateer is her standalone-looking early 20th century historical literary/women's fiction drama novel with strong f/m romantic elements starring a plucky young woman deciding to raise the money for a mission in Africa by training and competing in an automobile race with the help of a mechanic with a possibly shady past, free courtesy of Christian publisher Baker's Bethany House imprint.
NB: this seems filed about co-equally between regular inspirational historical and historical romance listing categories, and the customer reviews seem to indicate that there's a pretty strong focus on the heroine's racing training & prize-winning ambitions, though YMMV. This has previously been offered free in 2012. Currently free, probably just for one day @ B&N (also UK), Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK), Kobo & iTunes & Google Play (all available to Canadians), and ChristianBook (ADE-DRM ePub available worldwide). Description She's off to the races! Caught up in a whirlwind of religious enthusiasm, Alyce Benson impetuously pledges three thousand dollars to mission work in Africa. Now she just has to find a way to get the money. Alyce harbors a secret passion for speed and automobiles, and she's spent many an afternoon driving around the rustic track in the field behind her home. When she discovers that her father's company has sponsored a racing car that will compete in several upcoming events--races in which the driver will be paid and could win as much as five thousand dollars in prize money--she conspires with her father's mechanic, Webster, to train and compete. But when her friends cast aspersions on Webster's past, she realizes she may have trusted the wrong person with her secret. Will Alyce come up with the money in time, or will she have to choose between her hasty promise and the man who holds a piece of her heart? |
