Rosalie Johnson, a sensitive young woman with a healing touch, knows the pain of loss. Spurned by her first love after her mother's passing, Rosalie finds purpose and comfort in caring for her family. Her study of medicinal herbs and flowers is a labor of love she hopes will bless the lives of those in and around her little world in Briar Hollow. When Zion Coldwell arrives in Kentucky, a flurry of feelings quickens in Rosalie. He was only to be in town for a few days to organize an expedition of settlers from the Old States to the new frontier. To the surprise and delight of his little sister, Penny, the young man running from God and the pain of their parents' tragic death finds himself renewed in spirit in the quiet outskirts of Washington. Drawn to gentle Rosalie, who is reluctant to put her heart once more on the line, Zion pledges his love and to return to Rosalie in the Spring. In the midst of their fledgling romance, warnings niggle in both Zion and Rosalie. Their concerns prove true when two conmen wreak havoc on Zion's trip west and keep him from returning when promised. Rosalie once again experiences the grief of dashed hopes and a broken heart. Will she ever find a love that will be true? A tender story of healing, love and faith in an early Kentucky settlement.
