When The Mountain Crumbled by Angela K. Couch is a Chrsitian Historical Romance book. It is Book 4 in a new 6 part series of historic American disasters that transformed landscapes and multiple lives. Whether by nature or by man, these disasters changed history and were a day to be remembered. The Series is written by Various Authors.

The storyline is set in 1903 in the Canadian Rockies. The storyline is centered around the Mountain of a Small Mining Town crumbling into the town. The 2 main characters are Samantha Ingles and Constable David Harty. Samantha is the school teacher in the small mining town and loves her job. Constable David Harty doesn't particularly like Samantha.  He made the decision to leave his 3 nieces with Samantha when he sets out to search for his brother to make sure he is safe after the Turtle Mountain Rockslide.  Samantha has other children in her care also, at the Sanford House. The destruction and deaths of the Landslide really bring many in this little mining town together, including Samantha and David. I was encouraged by the Faith of the characters in this book. The story is one of Faith, Romance and History. The author did her research for this story and did a GREAT job at making it real. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian Historical Romance Fiction. WONDERFUL BOOK!

To keep from freezing in the great white north, Angela K Couch cuddles under quilts with her laptop. Winning short story contests, being a semi-finalist in ACFW’s Genesis Contest, and a finalist in the 2016 International Digital Awards also helped warm her up. As a passionate believer in Christ, her faith permeates the stories she tells. Her martial arts training, experience with horses, and appreciation for good romance sneak in as well. When not writing, she stays fit (and toasty warm) by chasing after five munchkins.

 

More from Angela

Around 4:10 am on April 29^th, 1903, approximately 110 million metric tonnes of limestone broke from the side of Turtle Mountain and crashed down into the Crowsnest Valley, burying ranches, camps, an active coal mine, and a part of the town of Frank. What has come to be known as “Frank Slide” was the deadliest landslide in North American recorded history, claiming the lives of more than seventy people.

I first visited Frank Slide as a child, as it is located only an hour’s drive from my home. All I remember from that experience was the heaps of rocks and boulders, and the story of the mine-horse named Charlie. When driving through the Crowsnest Pass as an adult, I began to appreciate the terror of that night and the horrible loss of life. Not until expanding my research while writing this story, did the miracles of Frank shine through everything horrible that happened. That became the focus of my story, When the Mountain Crumbled.

I find our own lives follow a similar pattern. Tragedy, hardship, sickness and disappointment… but do we see the miracles?
