Daniel Crocker was once Susan Hurst's dearest friend, the protector and champion of her childhood, and the one who sheltered her from lifelong fears and haunting memories. He is the only person she ever trusted.

But not even Daniel is aware of the shattering truth of Susan's past that has driven her to take the veil and become a nun.

On the brink of entering a cloistered life forever, Susan's ordered world falls into sweet disarray when Daniel rides back into town. But this is not the same boy she once knew. Now a tough lawman and a dangerous and viral stranger, he's betrayed her in becoming a man.

Determined to have Susan for his wife, Daniel slowly awakens her passions and unlocks the secrets of her soul. But as they welcome a glorious future together, their happiness is cruelly disrupted, and only the most courageous love can save the promise of tomorrow.
