The second in the epic Corbins series from #1 New York Times bestselling author Linda Lael Miller follows a desperate woman and a tormented man searching for love and happiness in the Pacific Northwest.

When a traveling carnival leaves Fancy Jordan stranded in the rugged Washington Territory, she thinks her luck has run out. Alone and penniless, she welcomes a most intriguing offer-to live in the home of Jeff Corbin's brother and coax the wounded, withdrawn man back to health and happiness. But a villainous attack on his ship had hurt not only his body-a far deeper sorrow tortures him, heart and soul. Can Fancy's love breathe new life into him or are some wounds too deep to heal?
