Rosemary J. Fisher lives in Columbia, Missouri, with her husband John and their two collies Regina Rose and Brynn. After retiring from a forty-five year career in education and childcare, Rosemary now spends her time writing novels, training dogs and doing community service projects. She enjoys reading, gardening, singing in the church choir and with the Columbia Mothersingers. "Safely Abiding" is Rosemary's second novel, following the lives of the Smith family introduced in "Under His Wings." Newlyweds Coop and Becky look forward to family life together on the farm. The wedding was beautiful, the honeymoon divine. But now the hard work begins and it's not all smooth sailing. Family relationships need to be ironed out when Becky's daughter Jenny rocks the boat. Other storms threaten their new lives together. A tornado, medical emergencies, depression and the return of a troubled woman from Coop's past all cause disruption to their home. Can the young Smith family survive the upheaval caused by these disasters? How can this all be part of God's plan for them? Will they abide safely under his wings?
