Dr. Jenny Edwards has no love for the father who abandoned her and her sick mother when she was a child. She has no desire to see him again or any more of his minions who have attempted to lure her back. Jenny sees men and marriage as a losing situation for women--nothing more than pain and poverty. She is determined not to get emotionally involved with any man. But she is lonely and dreams of an angel who will comfort her and never leave her side as she works day and night to heal the wounds of the people of her growing town.
When Shay rides into town he's taken aback by the beautiful, gentle doctor. He opts not to tell her why he is in town, knowing he must gain her trust before he can take her home.
Jenny cannot believe her eyes when Shay arrives. He is her angel, the very image of the man in her dreams. Skeptical, she puts him to the test. When Shay passes with flying colors, working round the clock to help her quell an epidemic on the outskirts of town, Jenny wonders about her vow to never give her heart to a man.
Will Jenny and Shay take the biggest gamble of both their lives and realize that to trust is to love?
