Sophie Connell falls in love with Corinth and all the beautiful flowers, so she stays. She knows nothing of the ongoing feud until the town erupts in gunfire. When she sees a little girl and a baby in the street next to their dead mother, she rushes to save them…and gets shot. Those events will bind the three of them forever.

Aubrey Pennington has finally found the perfect woman for him–Sophie Connell. She adopted those orphans without a thought and here she is, his wife. If she can love two strangers’ kids then surely she can love him.

A woman suddenly a single mother. A man more than twice her age with little patience. Two people who never should have married are about to become family. But this marriage is a ticking time bomb about to go off.
