Kansas, 1891. Sarah Townsend has built her life on hard ground and harder work a whitewashed farmhouse, twenty-six horses, five children, and a husband whose quiet love has carried her through every dry spell and every long winter night. Then a single bolt of dry lightning ignites the prairie, and in one terrible afternoon everything Sarah believed was certain is gone.
Left alone to keep the horses fed, the children safe, and the farm from slipping through her hands, Sarah does not know how she will make it through another winter, let alone another spring. Then a quiet stranger named Jacob Miller rides up the long dirt track with steady eyes and patient hands and offers her help she cannot afford to refuse, and a tenderness she is not ready to want.
But the prairie is unforgiving. Town gossip spreads like wildfire. Horse thieves come in the dark. And Sarah must decide whether holding tight to the man she lost is worth turning away the second chance the wind has carried to her door.
A sweeping, tender novel of love after loss on the wide Kansas plains.
