As a frightened child on the orphan train, Nora Barlow found comfort in an unexpected friendship. Now the new schoolteacher in Hazelton, Iowa, Nora has built her life around one guiding promise: finding her sister again. A spotless reputation and careful choices are the only path she trusts.
A young physician still working to fully be accepted in Hazelton, Dr. Briant Caldwell never imagines that the new teacher is the very girl who once shared his journey west on the orphan train.
When small keepsakes awaken memories of their childhood connection, their friendship rekindles and deepens. But in a town wary of scandal, even a gentle courtship carries risk. Will the promise that defined her past keep Nora from the love waiting in her present?
