Can she risk love without sacrificing her independence?


When Katie's husband and baby died, she vowed to never face such heartache again. Accompanying a trainload of orphans to their new lives in Missouri affords Katie the opportunity to start a new life of her own. She jumps at the chance, determined to grab life with both hands.


Doctor Wyatt Jeffries doesn't appreciate Katie's independence and determination. Having had his heart broken when his first wife's illness turned her into a hard-hearted hellion, Wyatt is looking for a wife who will be happy staying home and raising babies. So he doesn't understand why he can't stop thinking about the town's new seamstress.


When the deadly threat of a mysterious illness looms, Katie and Wyatt are forced to work together to save their town. Is there any chance they can save their own hearts too?
