"Good Christians, like my father, speak of God being the judge and yet seem the quickest to throw the proverbial stone. Unseen though it may be."
In desperation, Lenora Perry flees Montana, where her lovely voice and beautiful face have entertained dozens of men in The Pot O'Gold Saloon. With absolutely no idea where to go, and no money to get there, she hides in the back of a chuck wagon heading north; very far north, for the wagon takes her all the way to Alberta, Canada, where she is deposited into the hands (and lap, since there is only one horse)of Constable Edmund Bryce, a Royal Mountie.
" . . . see that you take care of that little girl. Both God and I will hold you accountable."
Edmund is clueless about what to do with a comely young woman travelling alone with only the clothes on her back. Taking Lenora to his family farm and entrusting her into the care of his sister, Edmund tries to deny how quickly his protective instincts have already kicked in. But those same instincts tell him that the woman has secrets. Surely he hasn't brought danger to his door and to his heart. Has he?
What a sweet, sweet story! Lenora and Bryce have much to learn about themselves, about each other and about how God can work all things together for good, but it certainly won't be easy.
"I need Thee, oh I need Thee; every hour I need Thee . . . "
