An Appalachian Outcast Seeks a Place to Belong
Kizzie McAdams spent her childhood longing to see beyond her secluded Blue Ridge Mountain home, but when her job as a servant in a landowner's house results in an unplanned pregnancy, the excitement of her new life dissolves into alienation and heartbreak. Her father disowns her, the father of her child gives inconsistent affection and broken promises, and the matriarch of the area is determined to distance Kizzie from her son by any means necessary.
Despite the kindness of a local family, Kizzie realizes she and her newborn son must start over somewhere else, so she flees to a nearby town. But her new world carries many of the same prejudices as the old. It also brings the unexpected friendship of businessman Noah Lewis, a man who lives with the same desire as Kizzie for helping the marginalized. Unfortunately, Kizzie and Noah's attempts to help those in need pit them against Noah's elder brother, a powerful mill owner who controls the family finances.
Is Kizzie and Noah's growing romance strong enough to overcome family power, social expectations, and Kizzie's past? And when Kizzie's first love returns to claim her, which future will she choose?
