Ariana: A Glimpse of Eternity
Fourth novel in the Ariana series
Ariana and Jean-Marc Perrault have built a wonderful life together. They
have raised their six children to believe in God and stay close to the Church.
Along the way they have faced many challenges and have relied on their faith
to see them through. Now, as the shadows darken around them once again, they
struggle to find strength and comfort in the face of almost unendurable
heartache.
Pauline, their adopted daughter, who was born HIV-positive, has recently
crossed the line into full-blown AIDS. After sixteen years of hoping and
praying for a miracle, how can Ariana bear to let her go? And how can Emeri,
Pauline's first love, reconcile such a terrible loss with what she has taught
him about the gospel?
As for the rest of the family, love is in the air as Marie-Thérèse
and Josette go off to America and Brigham Young University.
Marie-Thérèse is only marking time until she can serve a mission
. . . but will the handsome Mathieu change her mind? And beautiful, flighty
Josette doesn't know what she wants—until a near tragedy teaches her
that she's been looking for love in all the wrong places.
From life's darkest moments to its sweetest joys, author Rachel Ann Nunes
skillfully portrays the characters and events that will give you an unforgettable
Glimpse of Eternity.
What Others Are Saying
I loved this book and I know you will too. If you take my opinion it's the best of the whole Ariana series and it shows how things change. One moment you've given up and then it all changes...

Author's Comments
People keep wanting to know what happened to the Perrault daughters, especially
Pauline. So here are their stories. Though the entire family is included
in the novel, it primarily deals with lives of Ariana's three daughters and
the men they love. Scenes of mission, school, and family life will make you
feel even more a part of the Perrault family. Incidentally, I did not agree
with the final title of this book, because it isn't strictly about Ariana
as are the first three. My original title was Twin Flames on a Single
Candle. When you read the book, you'll understand why.
After reading Ariana: A Glimpse of Eternity, people keep asking me
if there will be another Ariana novel. The answer is not with the
Ariana title. However, there are various spin-offs about Ariana's
children and about other characters my readers have come to love in the series.
