      In this rewrite of a previously released 1996 secular romance of the same name, Hatcher (The Shepherd's Voice) reaffirms her calling to the Christian market. In 1897 Lady Elizabeth "Beth" Wellington flees an arranged marriage in England to become a school teacher in New Prospects, MT, the home of her young pen pal Janie Steele. Janie's father, Garrett, expects that Lady Beth will want to be waited on hand and foot, but Beth surprises him by moving into a tumbledown cabin. As Beth settles into her new life, her feelings for Garrett grow while she fends off the mayor's hot pursuit. With more emphasis on the role of the church in the developing West and deeper religious introspection for the main characters, Hatcher easily shifts to a new market with a title that will appeal to Tracie Peterson's fans. For all collections.
