USA Today–Bestselling Author: In a small-town school in the Ozarks, can a little girl in need bring two coworkers together?

A Maggie Award Finalist

Though the local gossips had them pegged as an item, teacher Rachel Woodward was merely helping Sean Bates, the new guidance counselor, learn small-town ways. But his looks and charm were almost irresistible. It was a good thing Rachel no longer fell prey to romantic insanity . . .

Yet she couldn’t ignore Sean, or how wonderfully he cared for the sweet, rambunctious five-year-old who’d landed in their school—and both their hearts. Little Samantha needed a father, and Sean would be the perfect man for the job. But she needed a mother, too—and suddenly Rachel wondered if God had a family in store for her after all . . .
