A Love Story Born from Darkness
When Madeline Flynn flees her tormentor with the help of a mysterious stranger, she believes her nightmare is finally over. But healing proves far more difficult than escape, and falling in love with James McPherson—a man haunted by his own past—brings unexpected trials.
As danger lurks in the shadows and long-buried secrets threaten to unravel everything, Madeline and James must navigate uncharted territory where love, faith, and redemption hang in the balance.
The Story
After fleeing murder charges and pursuing his niece, Thomas Belonge’s reign of terror continues to devastate those he encounters. Madeline Flynn, trapped as his victim, must protect her deaf brother Danny while enduring unthinkable abuse. When a mysterious rescue leads her to the Bounty Brothers and safety at the Circle 7 Ranch, she finds healing and hope with James McPherson—a reformed rogue whose past sins demand a devastating price.
Their love story faces devastating challenges when James’s past returns to claim him, forcing impossible choices about duty, sacrifice, and the true meaning of redemption. Through uncharted trials of trauma, faith, and forgiveness, Madeline and James discover that God’s grace is sufficient even when circumstances seem impossible.
