Her Mother's Hope, Marta's Legacy Series, Book 1, by Francine Rivers

Bestselling author Francine Rivers takes on the assignment of her lifetime in a no-holds-barred, two-book exploration of the complicated relationships between mothers and daughters.

Near the turn of the 20th century, fiery Marta leaves Switzerland determined to find life on her own terms. Her journey takes her through Europe and finally lands her with children and husband in tow in the central valley of California. Marta’s experiences convince her that only the strong survive.

Hildie, Marta’s oldest daughter, has a heart to serve others, and her calling as a nurse gives her independence, if not the respect of her mother. Amid the drama of World War II, Hildie marries and begins a family of her own. She wants her daughter to remain confident in her love – but the challenges of life conspire against her wish. Each woman is forced to confront her faulty but well-meaning desire to help her daughter find her God-given place in the world.
