Publisher Description
For Rachel Watkins, the armistice has brought anything but peace. She struggles to run her family’s Minnesota boardinghouse, keep her grief-shattered family together, and fend off the man who is using any means necessary to take her property. But now a shell-shocked stranger takes refuge with the Watkins family as he tries to heal and salvage what he can from his once privileged life. And when remorseless enemies seize a devastating chance, Rachel and this mysterious loner will risk everything to believe in each other … and claim the dreams they’ll never surrender.

"I love Dorothy Garlocks books! This book takes place in a small town in Minnesota 8 years after WWI. About how a family is affected by decisions made. "

" In some instances this book was a little more graphic than I would have preferred and there was some language that was a little bothersome, but in many ways was necessary for character development. I enjoyed the well-developed basic story line. "
— Janet, 1/26/2011 -
" This was a sweet novel leaning on the christian side with just a tad of adventure and danger thrown into a romance. Overall it was just sweet and not something I'll be keeping on my bookshelf. "
— Andrea, 1/20/2011 -
" Good but a little too predictable. "
— Joy, 1/9/2011 -
" Usually really like Dorothy Garlock books. This one is not as well put together in my opinion. "
— Becca, 10/11/2010 -
" Was able to skip pages and pages of long disquisitions that were just padding... "
— Deb, 9/2/2010 -
" Nothing surprising here, yet still, it's another satisfying read from an Iowan treasure. "
— Tracings, 8/20/2010 -
" Eh, pretty basic romance/mystery. It was okay. Not trashy at least, not really based in reality (considering it was historical fiction) but okay. "
— Renae, 8/6/2010
