If any town needed guidance on the path to peace, it was Jefferson, Texas. Delivering it was the widowed Reverend Daniel McLain's calling. Unfortunately, Daniel's own serenity is disrupted when his young daughters' nanny abandons her job, leaving the widower to appeal to his late wife's family for help . . . .

But instead of the elderly aunt he's expecting, he's greeted by Karlee Whitworth, the family's forlorn cousin who's desperate for a place to stay, and eager to prove her worth - - by caring for the twins and mending Daniel's grieving heart. Now two lost souls are about to discover a kindred spirit, and the courage they need to find the happiness they were destined to share . . .
