Summary:

"Lilly Arendale has fought the anger of prejudice all her life. Her Guatemalan mother and wealthy English father were very much in love and gave her the best of upbringings, but their family was never accepted in either country. Now, orphaned and alone in the mining town of Butte in the Montana Territory, the effects of racism have left Lilly with a one-year-old daughter and a fierce desire to avoid men at all costs. Marcus Sullivan is a born adventurer, and the new preacher in town. He's not afraid to take a few risks and his ways may be unconventional, but he's determined to add some joy into the lives of these townspeople. Especially the beautiful young mother who won't have anything to do with him. When the threat to Lilly intensifies and her worst fears comes true, how can she find the strength to release control of the one thing that matters most -- her daughter's life? As Marcus steps in to help, the danger only escalates. Has he finally taken a risk he can't overcome?" -- Back cover.
