Dinah Hyland comes from the perfect family. She has always looked forward to the day she has her own home. Her distress over her lost dream runs deep when she is medically unable to have children. Connor Marshall's family was less than stellar. He plans to remain a bachelor and teach in China only to lose his dream when he becomes guardian to his late sister's four small children. Both struggle with God as it seems He has taken what matters most to them. When Connor's new family attends Hobby Horse House, Dinah's day care, tension between the two grows as she observes how inept he is in caring for the kids and he sees how good she is. While they work to find harmony-and more-they must save the children from a kidnapper and find peace with their disappointment in God.
