A heartsick woman determined to hide. A joyful man with the heart of a wanderer.
Nebraska, 1879
The Lord gave and the Lord hath taken away. For young widow Eloise, all she sees is the taking. Now content to find purpose in raising her baby nephew, Eloise hides from life. If she doesn't open her heart, it won't have any reason to break. When a lost traveler tumbles into her solitude, she's forced to consider if God still has good things in store for her.
Carefree Zeke James searches for fun and adventure. Act now, figure it out later. After weeks of lonely travel, a scandalous chance meeting throws him into the path of an enchanting and aloof woman. Despite his plans to pass through this Swedish town after earning a few dollars, Zeke's choices tangle him further with the woman whose eyes beg for hope.
When a misguided attempt to defend Eloise's honor lands Zeke in trouble, he's left to choose between dreams he's carried since childhood and the chance to bring light to an aching heart.
With sprinkles of humor and deep emotion, this Christian romance offers a picture of hope as a relentless God leads two drifting hearts home.
