About the book
Amanda Powers would be forever grateful to God for reuniting her with her kidnapped son. Her beloved child needed her now more than ever. And so did embittered widow Garth Jorgensen, a man who had rejected his faith and grappled with the knowledge that he was not the boy's biological father. Amanda knew she should avoid an involvement with a man like Garth, but she sensed that God intended for her to wed him for the sake of her child. Did He also mean for her to build a real marriage with the one man she couldn't risk loving?
