After he is welcomed by Mary Margaret Harwell, Harris notices a lovely woman sitting across from him at a supper club. A few nights later, he sees her again and asks her to dance. There is no question that the beautiful widow, Kathleen King, has captured Harris’s attention.After he invites her to a concert and then a picnic, Harris realizes his attraction to Kathleen is undeniable. Despite his intention to embrace celibacy, their chemistry leads them into a passionate encounter that leaves them both wanting more.

After Harris showers her with jewelry and eventually his love, he decides not to return to the monastery and proposes marriage. But when she refuses and Harris learns a surprising truth about his own past, he is led down a path of self-discovery where he learns that the power of the human soul to forgive and redeem sometimes supersedes the church and even God.In this historical saga set in 1890s Colorado, a prospective priest returns home to explore his future and meets a beautiful woman who upends everything, including his heart.
