Molly Boudreau loves her work as a doctor at a local clinic -- after all, being a doctor was what she gave up everything to accomplish. One of her favorite patients is Sarah Morgan, a pregnant young woman who refuses to go to the hospital and delivers her baby right in the clinic.

Sarah shows up later, saying that there's a problem and she must have somewhere safe to leave her newborn baby boy, Nicolas. Reluctantly, Molly agrees to keep the baby. But her whole world falls apart when Sarah disappears and Molly learns of her death, finally understanding from Sarah's cryptic words that she was in fear of the baby's father.

Holding that tiny life close, Molly makes a huge decision and takes leave from her practice, going straight to her hometown. There, she confronts her family, who believe the baby is hers and feel betrayed. Not only that, but soon after she's followed to town by Dean Coletta, who seems to have a hidden agenda. Could he be in league with the baby's father?

Ms. Crandall always delivers a touching, well-written story and she doesn't fail the reader this time. I was a little cynical about Molly's willingness to give up everything for the baby, I admit. But I liked Molly and Dean, who was a little of a lost soul, trying to find a relationship with a sister he's already lost. You'll enjoy this book!
