Hope Does Not Disappoint is the second volume of The Shepherd of Cherokee Springs tales. When we left our heroes, Tobias Alexander and Judith Fredrickson, they were facing critical decisions in their lives that affected each other and their futures. Judith is a young Jewish girl who was orphaned at a young age. She has moved to rural mountains of Tennessee with her Guardian, who she refers to as her Aunt Penelope. Tobias is the son a local Pastor who is smitten with Judith’s aunt, adding an abundance of romance to the small coal and farming community of Cherokee Springs. The ongoing saga of Judith and Tobias continues as the two love struck teens find themselves in Europe! Judith is fulfilling her late father’s Trust to enroll into a finishing school in London. Tobias is pursuing his calling to become a leader, has enlisted in the Army and heading to France. The author tries to capture the historical perspective of life and happenings of the era by reminding the reader of specific events, locations, and situations facing the those who experienced life in the early 1900’s. This often hysterical look at their life’s journey in Europe is full of fun, drama, twists, and heartache. Come, be a part of the continuing ventures of Cherokee Springs!
