Peterson Continues a Bestselling Tradition!
When Cassie Lowe goes to live with her sister in the years following the
Civil War, she is reacquainted with a man who once saved her life, Tyler
Atherton. But Cassie is no longer the lighthearted young woman he once
knew. She is now a widow with a young daughter, and she is nursing the
disappointments and hurts from a difficult marriage. Though she longs to
open her heart again, she is bound by fear and mistrust.
Tyler has demons of his own. Still haunted by the knowledge that his
father was murdered by Comanches, he puts all his focus on reclaiming
his inheritance: the ranch stolen from his family as punishment for his
fighting for the Confederacy. With his affection for Cassie growing, he
longs to provide a home and future for her and her daughter.
Though yearning to pledge their love, both Cassie and Tyler struggle to
conquer their fears. Will Indian attacks, post-war renegades, and the
hardship of life on the Texas plains destroy their future? Or will they
find the strength to surrender their wills to God...and embrace his
perfect plan?
