Heaven's Child and the Devil's Spawn

Florence B. Smith

Product Description Heaven’s Child andthe Devil’s Spawn A romantic story filled with contrasting emotions, wonderful characters, and a strong sense of faith and hope. This is a story of a warped man intent on destroying the lives of anyone who crosses him, especially the women. Oliver Coonfield is a villain like no other. He says he came from Hell. Everyone agrees who has come in contact with his diabolical ways. He is brutal and carries a twisted obsession for Ham McCord’s wife, Estella, and their infant daughter, Quintella. Coonfield kidnaps the baby and raises the child to young womanhood. In the intervening years, he nearly kills the beautiful Quintella. She believes he is her father until something ugly and unbelievable happens. Little did she know how her life would touch the lives of so many. Little did she know that the love possessed by the handsome Cherokee Abbott for her would keep her alive. Little did she know how God maneuvered her around until she found her grieving family. This heart-warming story is of how faith and hope can prevail inside a living nightmare. Review Florence Smith is a prolific writer who has spun and engaging and scary story of the old West. -- Polly Swafford, Senior Editor, Potpourri Publications

This book by Florence Smith is rich in detail and exciting. -- Virginia DeCoursey, author and critic About the Author ABOUT THE AUTHOR Florence B. Smith began telling stories as a child. She always loved to escape back in history to the 1800's. She has since written more than 50 books and has published many historical novels, articles, and short stories. Married at sixteen, Mrs. Smith was for 56 years with her husband Ike, who was her biggest fan and constructive critic. Grieving for the loss of her life partner, Florence stopped writing for over a year, but her passion for life ultimately brought her back to recounting stories that Ike himself would have loved to read and to have her tell.
