Mountain Moonlight

After the cruel fires of Civil War destroyed all that mattered most, Betsy Tyler retreated to the edge of town. Here, deep in Tennessee's Smoky Mountains, she lives a life of self-imposed seclusion. Until the day a stranger comes calling - and offers her a chance for a new beginning...

Steele Montgomery has two purposes in life. As a traveling preacher, he delivers messages of loving kindness; as a man bent on vengeance, he relentlessly searches for the marauders who slew his family. He preaches faith yet has lost his own. Then he arrives in Peculiar Cove. He hears about the woman they call 'Crazy Bets', and realizes that here is his chance for salvation. For only in helping Betsy confront the demons that haunt her can he rediscover what he himself has lost - and claim a love unlike anything either of them has ever known...
