When her father disappears in war-torn Mississippi, Hannah Dandridge
finds herself responsible not only for her younger siblings but for the
ranch her father recently acquired on the Texas plains. Though a
marriage of convenience could ease her predicament, she determines to
trust God for direction.
Wounded soldier William Barnett returns
to his home only to discover that his family’s ranch has been seized.
Though angry and bitter at this turn of events, he’s surprised to
discover that it is a beautiful young woman with amazing fortitude who
is struggling to keep the place running.
Hannah, desperate for
help, and William, desperate to regain his family’s land, form an uneasy
truce. But nearby Comanche tribes, the arrival of Confederate soldiers,
and a persistent suitor all threaten the growing attraction that builds
between them.
