When Annabelle Larson decides to become a mail order bride she assumes her intended is looking for someone to love, as well. Yet her hopes are quickly dashed when she meets Luke Crawford and discovers his motives for marrying have nothing to do with love, and everything to do with the fact he needs someone to help him raise his orphaned niece.

From the moment she meets Luke she senses him to be a man who holds his heart closely. Adding to his reluctance to allow her into his heart, she must battle against Luke's idea that because he's half white, half Cherokee Indian, he's going to ruin Annabelle's life if she should fall in love with him. Not only is he determined to protect his own heart, he finds it a noble cause to protect Annabelle's, as well.

Neither Luke or Annabelle could foresee the tragedies that would conspire against them. Each one drawing them closer together. Yet, despite all that Annabelle has come to mean to Luke, will he allow his pride and misguided sense of honor to protect his wife to come between them? Will Luke allow the woman that he's grown to love to walk away without a fight?

When Annabelle's past comes calling, will Luke at last fight for the woman he loves? Or cling to his vows to never give his heart away? When he finally admits he loves Annabelle, will it be a little too late?
