The utmost delight in life is the realization that we are loved.

As a mail order bride, Hope finds herself married to an outlaw. She is left stranded on the Oregon Trail at about the same time as Daniel’s wife dies of cholera. The wagon train master strongly urges them to join forces and marry. They plan to have the marriage of convenience annulled in Oregon, but a life and death situation reunites them before that happens. 

Will Hope settle for less than Daniel’s whole heart? Can he let go of his grief and take a second chance at love?
