Regina Westfall has run out of options and soon will be considered upon the shelf. Either she accepts a proposal by the end of the season or her father will choose a husband for her. When Marcus Silverstone returns from South Africa alive, Regina believes her prayers have been answered. But he’s no longer the humble, caring missionary she fell in love with years ago. Marcus believes her brother betrayed him in South Africa, and he wants revenge.

Regina has faith that the man she loves still exists beneath all the bitterness. She must discover who really betrayed Marcus and left him for dead before he financially ruins her brother and the future she wants with Marcus. She prays one season will be enough to slip through the thorns in his heart and convince him of her and God's love as atonement for seven years of injustice.
