Romance Contemporary

Rachel's world came crashing down with the kidnapping of her only child. Her despair made her question everything about her life, including her eighteen-year marriage to local sheriff, Jake McAdams. When fourteen-year-old Michael appears on their doorstep three months later, claiming to be Jake's son, her life is turned upside down again.

But taking Michael into her home also forces Rachel to look at everything anew. She begins to rediscover her love for Jake, her faith in herself and her need to make a difference in her community. And she learns the ultimate lessonβ€”that together her family can find the strength to heal.
