In the 1880's, before there was the US Coast Guard, there was the United States Life-Saving Service. Shipwreck victims were plucked out of stormy waters by strong and courageous surfmen who did their jobs in rowboats. NO GREATER LOVE is a story of these heroes. Due to a family emergency, Phoebe Tyler, a young Society woman, travels to one of the most isolated stations in the life-saving system - Plovers Point on the shores of Lake Superior in Michigan. She is appalled by the primitive conditions, and the one thought carrying her through each day is that she will soon be able to return home to civilization. When circumstances compel her to remain longer than she had hoped, she experiences unfamiliar physical work, lakeshore rescues, and the pointed attentions of one Marcus Hamilton, an unrefined yet compelling surfmen. A new yearning rises within her to seek a fulfilling purpose for her life. When Marcus professes his love, Phoebe knows she will have to make a soul-wrenching choice between the advantageous marriage her family so desperately needs and God's call to follow her heart and His path. She will be able to follow God's call, but not until she returns home to confront her family's financial situation and discover a secret romance between her younger sister and the fiancé of the previously mentioned advantageous marriage. And... there is a dog, a black Newfoundland named Gypsy, who is a fine rescuer in her own right.
