A former Pinkerton’s detective, Deacon (Deke) Shepherd blames himself for the death of his wife ten years earlier. In his grief, and convinced he’d make a horrible father, he left his young son behind in Denver to be raised by the boy’s maternal grandmother. Having given up on his faith, he bought a rundown ranch on the outskirts of Walton, Colorado and lives his life as a hermit.

Carrie Montgomery is Walton’s schoolmarm. The daughter of the town’s minister, she’s taken over for the retiring teacher. When a new student arrives in her classroom, she’s immediately aware of the boy���s sadness and shy demeanor. She makes it her mission to speak with the child’s parents in an effort to bring him out of his shell.

What she wasn’t expecting was a man nearly as withdrawn as his son. Can she turn these two lost souls around? Will the magic of the holidays bring them some much-needed joy? More importantly, can they find themselves, and each other, in a renewal of faith?
