Apr 3, 2014 9:00:39 PM  |  by [Sarah Reinhard](https://www.catholicmom.com/articles/author/sarah-reinhard) *Check out some of Ellen Gable's books from [Full Quiver Publishing](https://fullquiverpublishing.com)!* [![cover-asubtlegrace](https://www.catholicmom.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/cover-asubtlegrace-62x100-2.jpg?width=62&height=100&name=cover-asubtlegrace-62x100-2.jpg)](http://catholicmom.com/2014/03/29/weekly-giveaway-books-by-ellen-gable-and-lots-of-em/cover-asubtlegrace/) ### A Subtle Grace About the book: > In this sequel to "In Name Only" (2009, FQP), "A Subtle Grace" continues the story of the wealthy and unconventional O’Donovan Family as they approach the dawn of a new century. > > At 19, Kathleen (oldest daughter) is unmarried with no prospects. Fearing the lonely fate of an old maid, her impatience leads to an infatuation with the first man who shows interest. The suave, handsome son of the local police chief seems a perfect match. But will her impulsive manner prevent her from recognizing her true beloved? A disturbing turn of events brings a dark shadow that threatens the life-long happiness she desires. > > Dr. Luke Peterson (the family’s new physician) also makes quite an impression on Kathleen. His affection for her leads him to startling revelations: about Kathleen, about his practice and, most importantly, about himself. > > Will (oldest son) believes God may be calling him to a religious vocation. Eventually, he discovers the hidden circumstances of his humble beginnings compelling him to embark on a pilgrimage to Rome. > > (Note: Although "A Subtle Grace" is a sequel, it can be read as a stand alone book, independently of the first book in the series.)
