Time begins to heal Mallory and Liam, not only is grateful for her help, but also is falling for Mallory and the child.

At times heartbreaking, the story of the struggles Mallory has endured, and the dedication Liam has to not only his mother, but those in need , is one that will touch your hearts.
This Christian, clean, uplifting romance, reminds us that in times of trouble, God and the goodness of people will help one overcome the sadness and allow us to find happiness.
This is a story about hope, and new beginnings in life and love.

Mallory is looking for a new start and an escape from the life she is leaving. She’s pregnant from an abusive ex-husband and just wants away from him. When she goes to the place church recommended to her, she meets Liam who ends of taking her in and offering her a job, a place to stay and freedom.
It was just what she needed.
And then feeling happen…
Can she trust that he loves her and not just her son?
Can she trust that he doesn’t love her just because he saved her?
This is a very sweet story!
