A midnight tryst, an unknown admirer and a baby that is delivered to church with just a short note.

On the day Deacon Hudson was set to be ordained, a bundle shows up at the church with a simple note on it. Deacon Hudson is the father. Take care of her.

Deacon knows he’s not the father. The Immaculate Conception was a one time thing. But the baby needs a parent, and he has to decide if he will give up his life dream of being a pastor to take the child, despite the fact that the note is a lie. Can he do it without resenting the child?

Blair Dixon made an unthinkable decision and sacrifice, driven by the unfathomable love a mother has for her child.

She served her time. Now she’s back to fix the mess she made.

It might not be possible to straighten everything out.

It’s definitely not possible for her to get everything she wants – the best everything for her daughter and the love of the cowboy she chose to be the father.

But small town gossip can be vicious, and unless she comes up with a plan, she could ruin his life a second time.

After what she’d done, love was impossible. Or was it?
