When heartache and loss invade Karen Pierce's carefully ordered
world, she is devastated. Her plans and
dreams for the future seem distant and unattainable, and she is
bound by a promise to care for two young adults who are struggling
with a loss of their own. Continuing their journey north to the
goldfields seems their only option, and Adrik Ivanov agrees to be
their guide. With a late start and the constant threat of winter
hastening their pace, Adrik wonders at the wisdom of their
decision. But he longs to prove his commitment and growing love for
Karen, who has pushed aside his advances in the past. Inspired by
the beautiful and rugged landscape, Karen thrives under the
difficult conditions of their trek. As her heart begins to journey
back to the core of her once-solid faith, will she dare to embrace
the love offered to her?
