Can time heal all wounds?
After a tragedy, Madilynn Sinclair uproots her life and responds to a job advertisement in Natchez, Mississippi. Throwing herself into the project of establishing a bed and breakfast seems like a perfect way to start over. And maybe even more importantly, a way to avoid the pressures of getting into a new relationship. The scar across her forehead is nothing compared to the scars across her heart.
As the son of a wealthy plantation owner, more and more responsibility falls on Beau Becquerel's shoulders as his brother leaves home and his father takes ill. With cotton to harvest, tobacco to cultivate, and horses to care for, Beau neglects his own life. At twenty-six, he is long overdue for a wife. Even if there were any local prospects, he wouldn't have time to court anyone. When Madilynn finds one yellow rose nestled in a red rose bush, everything she believes is turned upside down. If she opens her heart, will she find true love again? As for Beau, the belief that love finds those who are not looking hits close to home. Can Madilynn and Beau overcome the insurmountable obstacle of time to be together? This book will tear your heart apart and put it back together again with new hope.
