Publisher's summary

Jessica Cantrell grapples with her feelings after the birth of her son, Henry. Her constant love for his father, Jacob, spills over to her infant and seals their bond. While her husband, Caleb, reluctantly agrees to take on the task of raising the child, the secret adoption puts a strain on relationships as Jessica tries to make a home and family with Caleb. Meanwhile, Jacob and Will, Jessica’s brother, proceed with their plans to open an import business in the heart of San Francisco after having accepted the reward money issued for the return of Jessica from the Indian camp. The sum includes the contribution of her ex-husband, Frederick Moore. Laced with deceit and revenge, the money is a way for Frederick to get back at Jacob. He and Will must come up with a plan to keep Frederick from destroying their company. However, neither one expected what would happen next. As Jessica’s family grows and her art is recognized, the whole family is faced with tragedy when the 1906 San Francisco earthquake hits the region. Jessica finds herself on a journey to rescue her son and consequently reunites with Jacob—a reunion that tugs at her heartstrings. Unaware of Jacob as his birth father, Henry Cantrell grows up with both Caleb’s and Jacob’s differing views of life. Taking both to heart, he plans his future as a lawyer. With the 1918 pandemic looming, a shocking discovery puts Henry on a soul-searching journey—one that Jessica can only hope will not alter her son too severely, taking him away from her forever
