by Diane Wahn Shotton (Author)

Lizzie Hesch has been losing family since childhood.

At seventeen, with only her sisters left, she must leave the German Protestant Orphan Asylum with little more than a determination to build a decent life.

She does everything expected of her. She marries. She becomes a mother. She follows every rule.

And still, she loses it all.

Now Lizzie refuses to wait for anyone else to decide what her life will be. With her sisters beside her, she builds a livelihood and a future on her own terms.

Then a man arrives who tempts her to risk loving-and losing-again.

Lizzie's Oath is the second novel in the Roots of Resilience series. Each book follows a different Hesch sister and can be enjoyed as a standalone, while together they reveal one family's remarkable journey through nineteenth-century America.
