Big Springs, Indiana, 1869. Four years have passed since the Civil War ended, and Virginia and Angus have settled into married life in the quiet countryside of southern Indiana. Though their home is filled with love, one longing remains unanswered. After years of marriage, they are still without children, and the hope of becoming parents grows more painful with each passing year.
Then an unexpected opportunity changes everything.
When Virginia and Angus learn of an infant in need of a home-a baby of mixed-race heritage-they see the child not as a burden or a problem, but as an answer to years of prayer. With grateful hearts, they agree to adopt the baby, believing at last that God has given them the family they have long desired.
But the nation may have ended slavery, and the war may be over, yet old prejudices remain deeply rooted.
Their decision soon sends whispers through Big Springs. Some neighbors question why a white couple would willingly raise a mixed-race child as their own. Others openly condemn them. Even people Virginia and Angus have known all their lives struggle to accept their choice, forcing the young couple to confront anger, prejudice, and rejection within the community they call home.
As controversy grows, Virginia and Angus must decide how far they are willing to go to protect their child and stand by what they believe is right. Surrounded by a world still struggling to understand what freedom and equality truly mean, they discover that becoming a family requires more than love-it requires courage.
In this moving continuation of the Ohio River Valley Series, Virginia and Angus face one of their greatest trials as they learn that sometimes an answer to prayer arrives in an unexpected form-and that doing what is right may require standing against nearly everyone around you.
