Description

She's marrying him out of necessity. He's secretly hoping to sway her heart. Will their friendship deepen into happily ever after? Colorado, 1924. Louisa Lind is a dutiful daughter to her adoptive parents. After the boy she loves marries someone else, she vows to assist her father and mother with church work and forget all about marriage. But when tragedy strikes, the suddenly penniless young woman reluctantly accepts a marriage proposal... from her dream man's twin brother. Having completed his medical school studies, Theo Barnes has returned to Emerson Pass to apprentice under the town's doctor. Smitten since childhood with the pastor's adopted daughter, he gallantly offers to wed Louisa to save her from destitution even though he knows her to have been in love with his twin brother. Despite his family believing the marriage to be a mistake, Theo persistently holds out hope that all he needs is time to win Louisa's heart. They both suffer from childhood wounds and began to see their connection as something much deeper. Can the two damaged souls find a way to finally move on from their painful pasts and find love?
