Release date: May 21, 2024
Thunderous applause extinguishes her dream and ignites her worst nightmare.
Clara Reinhold’s father publicly pledges her hand to Georg Wolff. His character and arrogance match the stench of his odious cigars, but his lineage offers a suitable alliance for the station of a baron’s daughter.
A charades clue years earlier turned friendship into a promise of forbidden marriage between Clara and family carriage driver, Daniel Becker.
If she refuses Georg and follows her heart, her father disowns her and she loses everything—her loving family, dear friends, and the only home she’s known.
As a tangled web of scandal and deceit unwinds, hidden motives and illicit activities emerge among an unsuspecting ring of players changing everything but the nobility’s rules.
How will justice be served?
How will Clara and Daniel overcome obstacles to claim a future beyond that of a charade?

My Thoughts on Tangled Promises
This is a fun new novel. It’s also the debut novel of our author. It was a pleasure to read this. I loved the mix of characters as well as the historical aspect thrown in as well as some romance. It also promises more to come since it’s marked as the first book in a series.
I enjoyed journeying to Germany in this novel. I also got a bit of an education on the class structure and what life might have been like. Add in a story of love that isn’t allowed. Oh and an overbearing domineering father. And maybe an arranged marriage as well. There really is so much more as well but I don’t want to spoil the story.
What you need to know though is that this is one of those books that keeps the reader guessing what might happen next and how it’s going to end. It’s a wonderful read and I can’t wait to see what the author comes up with next.

More from Lynn
My daughter gifted me a tee shirt for Christmas with an image of a typewriter and the slogan: I make things up. That’s a novelist’s job! 🙂
Where we and our family came from and how we arrived where we are today, there’s a story in each of us. I find myself often pondering people’s backstories. I regret knowing only the tiniest bits of my own family’s backstory. When I had the opportunity to ask the questions, I was too naive to know what to ask. Decades later I made it up.
Tangled Promises was born.
A recurring theme as I wrote Tangled Promises focuses on this verse:
The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all. ~Proverbs 22:2
Clara and Daniel lived in the same world. She is the daughter of the Baron and he is the family’s humble carriage driver. Very much in love with one another, but their social status dictated rules created to forbid their union.
In a world so shattered by differences, God calls us to see we’re all the same in His eyes. From the unborn baby to kings in the land, we’re all cherished by Him. He calls us to forgiveness and love.
While I’ve published a few devotional books, Tangled Promises is my debut novel and the first book in the Promised Destiny series. Thank you for reading. I pray you love it and are blessed.
