But now she'd come home-and it seemed like only yesterday that small-town ways had sent her running from love. For the very idea of a farmer's daughter marrying the son of the rich and powerful Murdock family had seemed preposterous, especially to her.
Yet, as she gazed into Dillon Murdock's eyes once again, hope for a new beginning blossomed. As their bittersweet yearning to seek forgiveness for the past bonded them together, Isabel's abiding faith inspired her to recapture Dillon's heart. After all these years, would her girlhood dream of a wedding at Wildwood finally come true?
