When Faith Faltered For Her

Synopsis

In 1971, Pearl Whitman, a wealthy young lady, set off for the distant and frigid Frostvale. However, an avalanche struck as she was entering the village. Fortunately, she was rescued by Gabriel Wolfson, the heir of a monastery. At first sight of him, Pearl was smitten. Gabriel combined the chivalrous sense of responsibility of a knight with the compassion of a clergyman. Two years later, in 1973, Pearl finally got the courage to take Gabriel's hand. Standing on tiptoe, she kissed his lips gently. "Gabriel, with God as my witness. I, Pearl, vow my whole heart to you for this lifetime." Gabriel's eyes remained as calm as still water, yet this very calmness made the lively and charming Pearl fall deeper in love with him. In 1975, without a backward glance, Pearl boarded the train home, leaving behind everything in Frostvale.
