The Civil War rages around her, yet Brigid McGinnis has her life planned out. That was, until she stumbles across an unconscious Confederate soldier on her father’s property.
A blow to the head stole Dominic Warner’s memory. The beautiful fraulein who nurses him back to health steals something even more important—his heart.
For political and societal reasons, Brigid and Dominic must go their separate ways. They each get caught up in the war and put their lives on the line to remain true to the values and faith they
share. Follow Brigid and Dominic from the battlefields surrounding Atlanta, along slave escape routes, to Little Rock, and eventually to the plains of Eastern Texas, as they learn to trust,
forgive, love, and surrender to a plan greater than their own.
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“A civil war romance that blends heroic choices with faithful love.” —A. K. Frailey, author of Last of Her Kind
“A moving love story set during the Civil War…Lauer brings to life different perspectives, fears, and hopes of people on both sides of this terrible war. Faith plays a beautiful part in this story, as the protagonists face trials, choices, and self-evaluation. I highly recommend A Life Such As Heaven Intended for lovers of historical American fiction.” —Theresa Linden, author of Battle for His Soul
“A sweet historical romance between a German-born soldier and a young Southern lady blissfully unaware of both her father’s and servants’ clandestine actions. With secrets galore, flip-flopping loyalties, and Brigid’s imminent profession of religious vows, the reader is taken on a rollicking ride from war to peace and from subjugation to freedom.” —Carolyn Astfalk, author of Rightfully Ours
An avid reader and history buff since childhood, Amanda Lauer fulfilled a lifelong goal with the publication of her debut Civil War novel, A World Such as Heaven Intended in 2014.

newspapers and magazines throughout the United States. Lauer is also the cowriter of the movie The Islands which debuted in theaters nationwide in 2019. The second book in her Heaven
Intended series, A Life Such as Heaven Intended, was published in April 2018, and the third book, A Love Such as Heaven Intended, came out in April 2019. Residents of northeast
Wisconsin, Lauer and her husband John have been married thirty-nine years. They are involved in their church and community and in their spare time travel for business and pleasure, play golf, run,
