After losing her husband, all Rebecca O'Neal wants is to feel safe again with her five children. She arrives as a mail-order bride in Crest Stone with her sister, only to find her intended is deceased. His brother, Levi, immediately offers to marry her instead, and Rebecca reluctantly agrees.

Levi Whiteside is determined to make his late brother's farm a success and to take care of Rebecca and her children. He didn't expect to fall in love with Rebecca, especially not when he has to keep the real reason for his presence in the mountain valley a secret from her.

Rebecca wants a real marriage with Levi, but it seems impossible to find love with a man who seems so distant. When Levi is forced to reveal the truth he's been keeping from Rebecca, he finds himself promising to prove that she can trust him. But can he succeed when danger comes to their door?
