ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: Hope Beyond the Waves
Author: Heidi Chiavaroli
Publisher: Hope Creek Publishers, LLC
Release Date: June 28, 2022
Genre: Christian, Dual Timeline Fiction

From award-winning author Heidi Chiavaroli comes a sweeping dual timeline story that explores hope and enduring love in the midst of the impossible.

Massachusetts, 1993

After making a grievous mistake that will change her life forever, Emily Robertson is sent away to live with her grandmother on Cape Cod. When Emily finds a timeworn photograph buried in a drawer, she realizes her grandmother has concealed a secret even bigger than her own. Will convincing Gram to reveal their family history help Emily make the most important decision of her life or will it prove her parents right—that family scandal is better off buried and forgotten?

Massachusetts, 1916

Atta Schaeffer plans to marry the man of her dreams and whisk her little sister away from their abusive father. But when she is diagnosed with a dreaded malady, Atta is forced into a life of exile, leaving her sister in harm’s way.

On Penikese Island, Atta’s best hope lies with Harry Mayhew, a doctor who seeks a cure for his patients at any cost. But when experiments fail, Atta runs from Harry—and from God. Can she return to her sister before it’s too late? Or will her illness consume both her body and soul?

A testament to faith and love, Hope Beyond the Waves is the raw account of the journey of two generations of women running from desperate situations toward irresistible hope.

EXCERPT:

Atta took in her last breath of freedom and looked at Papi once more,
knowing any words she spoke would be inadequate. She barely knew this
man she called her father. Felt nothing toward him but resentment. Maybe
even hatred.
“Please, Papi…” She grasped for words. Make wise choices. Think of
Gertie. Stop being so stupid!
His mouth hardened and he turned away. “I’ll have Gertie light a candle for
you at Mass. Goodbye, Atta.”
She walked into the fresh morning light and stepped into the Board of
Health car, a newfound determination overtaking her. She would survive this
ugly illness. The real question was, would her family?
