Sarah lived in a very secluded community; she was well cared for, but she lived without electricity and other modern conveniences. A rape and unexpected pregnancy forced Sarah to make the most important decision of her life.

Reservation life was not pleasant for James. His white father ran off and his American Indian mother couldn't deal with the loss of her husband. Promises of a better life made by his white grandfather were never kept. James longed for a better life. He longed for a family.

When Sarah and James meet, little do they know their differences, as well as what they share, will bind them together forever.
