No one is more surprised than Sunny Adams when Noah Whitmore proposes. Sunny is a scarlet woman and an unwed mother--an outcast even in her small Quaker community. In Sunny, Noah, a former Union soldier, sees a woman whose loneliness matches his own. When they arrive in Wisconsin, he'll see that she and her baby daughter want for nothing--except for the love that war burned out of his heart. Yet Sunny makes him hope once more?for the home they're building, and the family he never hoped to find. -- Provided by publisher.
