She’s not what he wanted, but could she be what he needs?
With the beauty and voice of an angel, Elise used her gifts to provide for her and her daughter as a singer in the local saloon. After years of unwanted attention from one drunkard after another though, Elise has had enough and decides to remarry--no matter the love she still harbors for her late husband. But every respectable man she comes to know has no desire to marry a saloon-girl. Out of options, she decides to follow in her daughter’s footsteps and become a proxy bride. But the last thing she expected to find when she stepped off the train was the brother of the man she’d married--the handsome preacher of the small Wyoming town.
With a heavy heart, Harrison Reed immediately informs Elise that her new husband died in an accident while she was traveling. Out of his own personal sense of duty, he steps in and offers to marry his brother’s widow--the shockingly beautiful woman he can’t help but feel drawn to. However, when he and the rest of the town discover her background, he’s instantly torn between upholding the moral guidance of the community and his growing feelings and obligation toward Elise, with his own shady past plaguing him every step of the way.
But unbeknownst to them both, a shadow is ever lurking--a shadow that refuses to be stopped. Will it be the force that ultimately pushes her and the preacher together, or will it destroy both their lives forever?
