Schoolteacher Mercy Mayes arrives in Broken Acres, Wyoming Territory, with quiet faith and a prayer for peace. She's determined to build a new life, but her compassion soon draws the attention of Wade Whittle, a hardened rancher who barricaded his heart against love long ago.
Wade views Mercy's tender heart and acts of charity as a foolish vulnerability in the unforgiving West. Yet, he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her gentle strength and the way she sees past his gruff exterior.
Forced to confront his own brokenness and the unexpected hope Mercy ignites, Wade must choose between the solitude he's always known and the terrifying vulnerability of opening his heart. Can Mercy's unwavering faith help Wade find his way back to God and the courage to love?
