Since her mother's death years ago, it has been up to Annie Morrow to raise her brothers and sisters and run the family farm. Now all her siblings are grown up and she's tired of farm life-- all she wants is to marry the town minister and settle down to a quiet, simple life that includes indoor plumbing and electricity. Sure, Miller seems to be marrying her only out of a sense of duty, but Annie is holding onto her dream. Then Noah Eastman comes into her life with his two beautiful little girls, turning her heart inside out. Noah has come to town with his daughters to run his farm. He is a kind man and a good father-- but he's been hurt. Annie takes his breath away with her honey colored hair, skin and eyes. He can't believe this is the same woman he's heard so much about from her sister and brother. He expected her to be older, fatter, unappealing. Instead, he can't take his eyes off of her and sets his heart on marrying her. Only one problem-- Annie doesn't want Noah, she wants Miller and the life he can offer her. Noah isn't ready to give up on her quite yet, though. He is determined to make Annie his wife. It doesn't take long before Annie becomes involved with Noah and his girls. She starts comparing Noah to her reluctant beau, Miller and realizes that Noah stirs feelings in her that Miller never could. Noah is warm, friendly-- and he says the sweetest things about her. Could it be that Noah is the man for her? If Noah has his way, he'll convince Annie that they are meant to be together. Heart warming!
