"In A Moment in Time, the second book in Tracie Peterson's Lone Star Bride series, Alice Chesterfield is shaken by the attack that left her scarred and her father dead. She cannot shake the memory of the man responsible.

"Alice is relieved when she accepts the offer to relocate to a ranch in Dallas, Texas. She meets Robert Barnett, a handsome, carefree man with a good head on his shoulders. He is a welcome change from the discord of Alice's past. He helps her navigate the obstacles in her way and he doesn't seem to care about her scar. Just when life begins returning to normal, Alice receives devastating news about her family. She must learn to place her trust in God as she seeks a measure of peace for her future...and for her heart."  (www.familychiristian.com)
