How do you pick up the pieces of a shattered life?
To escape her angry father, Dulcie McDaniel got pregnant--but lost her husband in a fatal accident. Penniless, she returned home with her little girl--only to have her world shattered once again. Lonely and filled with regrets, Dulcie struggles to provide a decent life for her daughter. Then a handsome stranger arrives.
Dulcie, usually shunned by proper folks, is suspicious of Rye Forrester, a drifter offering to work for his keep. But after he helps harvest the crops, her feelings toward the handsome stranger turn into a consuming mutual passion. Although Rye wears the brand of an army deserter, Dulcie is thrilled to be with such a good man.
But Rye has his own secrets. He can't understand why his late friend cheated on such a beautiful wife--or how he can now ask Dulcie's forgiveness for his part in her husband's death. Love is one thing--acceptance and forgiveness another. When their tragic pasts catch up with them, these two wounded souls must fight for the love that will keep them together for a lifetime.
