What will restoration cost the beloved Norgaard family?\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cp\u003eAven Norgaard understands courage. Orphaned within an Irish workhouse, then widowed at just nineteen, she voyaged to America where she was wooed and wed by Thor Norgaard, a Deaf man in rural Appalachia. That the Lord saw her along the winding journey and that Aven now carries Thor's child are blessings beyond measure. Yet while Thor holds her heart, it is Haakon--his younger brother and rival--who haunts her memories. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHaving fled the Norgaard orchard after trying to take Aven as his own, Haakon sails on the North Atlantic ice trade, where his soul is plagued with regrets that distance cannot heal. Not even the beautiful Norwegian woman he's pursued can ease the torment. When the winds bear him home after four years away, Haakon finds the family on the brink of tragedy. A decades-old feud with the neighboring farm has wrenched them into the fiercest confrontation on Blackbird Mountain since the Civil War. Haakon's cunning and strength hold the power to seal many fates, including Thor's--which is already imperiled due to a grave illness brought to him at the first prick of warfare. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNow Haakon faces the hardest choice of his life. One that shapes a battlefield where pride must be broken enough to be restored, and where a prodigal son may finally know the healing peace of surrender and the boundless gift of forgiveness. And when it comes to the woman he left behind in Norway, he just might discover that while his heart belongs to a daughter of the north, she's been awaiting him on shores more distant than the land he's fighting for. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrom Christy Award\u003cstrong\u003e-\u003c\/strong\u003ewinning author Joanne Bischof comes \u003cem\u003eDaughters of Northern Shores\u003c\/em\u003e the highly anticipated sequel to her moving novel \u003cem\u003eSons of Blackbird Mountain.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thomas Nelson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780718099121\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.30h x 5.40w x 1.00d","brand":"Joanne Bischof","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36640744177820,"sku":"9780718099121","price":13.59,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_f7060efa-89cb-4833-8712-325c6d1b0744.jpg?v=1603852646","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/daughters-of-northern-shores-9780718099121","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
