Faith, Hope and Love

SHE WAS A MYSTERY... .

When rancher Luke Summers went to court to battle Rachel Carstairs for custody of his young nephew, he never expected to encounter a lost, delicate creature who aroused such fierce tenderness in him. Who was enigmatic Rachel, and why had she traveled halfway across the world to fight for a baby she'd never even seen? Luke was determined to find out.

For years Rachel had been running from a lonely past that threatened to destroy her. Ten-month-old Gordie was a reason to stop running--until Rachel lost her case to Luke Summers. But when she unexpectedly collapsed in the rugged rancher's arms, it was Luke who took her in, Luke who filled her world with sudden hope.

Still, dreams didn't last forever. Soon she'd have to say goodbye--to a man and a child she now loved with all her heart... .
