More DescriptionBen Kohl rode into Copper Creek amid the aftermath of scandal and disillusionment in the fall of 1880. Michael Randolph's passing that summer had sparked an epidemic of doubt in Copper Creek that perhaps all was not as wholesome or honest as it seemed. But remedying this perception was not Ben Kohl's aim. Rather, he intended to seek out the keeper of Michael Randolph's darkest secret to release an even more shocking truth on the unsuspecting populace.That truth had been Olivia Kohl's private heartache for more than twenty years. Abandoned by her husband just months after they'd taken their vows, she had subsequently lost their only child at birth. She had finally begun to enjoy life again when her younger brother, Henry, accepted his first assignment as pastor for the Copper Creek church. But when Ben claims the impossibility of being her son, all the sorrow of her traumatic past threatens to destroy her happiness once more.Adamant that Olivia's aunt sent him to find her and explain the deception she perpetrated to keep them apart, Ben's desire to know more about his father sparks a storm of emotion leading to dangerous complications when he begins to show romantic interest in Michael's grieving daughter, Rachel. Forced then to choose between telling the truth or preserving a beloved memory, Olivia plans to make a brave confession. But when a deadly subterfuge, designed to exact revenge on all of Copper Creek, ignites a catastrophe no one could have foreseen it will take a twist of fate to mend more than one broken heart.
