Love's Healing

Serena Lancaster is grieving the death of her brother and his wife, but more than anything she wants to claim their orphaned baby who is being raised by foster parents. Her wealthy father disowned his son for leaving the family business and becoming a lowly farmer. Serena can't tell him her true reason for going to Oregon, but he doesn't mind her visiting an aunt who lives nearby. Thinking all is well, and she will soon be in charge of her niece, she is stunned to find opposition from the foster family's son. It doesn't help that he stirs emotions that have nothing to do with the baby.

Daniel Morgan served two years in the cavalry and received an injury that almost cost his life. His death was assumed when he went missing after that terrible battle, and his parents and wife were notified. Now he's home, ready to take up where he left off, eager to see his wife. But his parents have shocking news for him when they introduce their newest foster child, an infant of only two months. He isn't interested until he learns this is his wife's child after marriage to a man named Lancaster. Now she's an orphan. Bitterness fills his heart toward anyone by that name, so when a Lancaster shows up and claims she's the baby's aunt, he refuses to be moved by her charm and beauty. Why doesn't he hand the infant over and be done with both of them instead of telling her she needs to stay at least a month? He has no idea.

Can Daniel find happiness when it seems betrayal and heartache is now his lot in life?
