β¦ Synopsis
Through a hard turn of events, Reese Thackery has become an indentured servant. When the owner of her contract dies, the bank has rights to her fate. Conner Kingsley, the son of the bankβs owner, comes to Tucker Mills to investigate and soon releases Reese from obligation and hires her to keep house for him.
Reese is grateful for freedom but unsure of her other feelings for Conner. Yet, as her emotional hurts heal, and her faith blossoms, Reese allows herself to trust someone for the first time. But will Conner do the same?
When love at first sight is not the case, can shared faith and restoration grow from a whisper of understanding into a proclamation of love?
