She travels to Come-By-Chance to meet young fur-trapper Henry Miller, who has agreed to marry her if she will come - but Henry knows nothing of Rose's baby, or even her seven-year marriage.
Can Rose expect such a young man to accept not just herself, but her baby daughter Minnie as well?
Might Rose and Henry find love amidst all the troubles that threaten to tear them apart?
And what is Rose's secret - a secret so terrible she can see no other future than to live with the shame of it, each and every day for the rest of her life?
It's time to catch up with the Come-By-Chance townsfolk: the strapping Wilkinson brothers Ben, Matt and Toby; recently wed Ruby, Emily and Violet; the Beans, the Hearts, the Milligans, the Carmichaels and of course, the feisty Kate and incorrigible Wally Davis.
So hold onto your hat and settle in for another Come-By-Chance story of True Love and True Adventure!

Juliet James is the author of the much-loved Come-By-Chance Western Romance Series. (Over 100,000 copies sold) While most of the characters in her books are lovely, happy and friendly, a few of them scare her so much she has to stop writing and go hide under the blankets.
She lives with the world’s most articulate, ancient, and alluring cat, hopes Earl Grey Tea Drinking will become an Olympic sport, and — don't tell anyone — hides a tiny bird on all of her book covers.
