Growing up in a strong Christian home, Jennifer Brewer's dream was to one day marry a good man and raise a family. When a disease attacked her body at age sixteen, part of that dream was made impossible. With a broken heart and a stiff resolve, Jenni decided that if she couldn't have all of her heart's desire, she would have none of it. When a would-be suitor would show interest in her, she would tactfully but firmly turn them away.

Now at the age of twenty-six, Jenni has her life of solitude in order. No attachments, therefore, no heartbreak. Until Tim Carlson moved to town. His immediate interest in her was apparent, but she quickly rebuffed him. Not expecting to see him again, she was totally surprised when he continued to come around. His kindness to her was a threat to the barricade that had been erected around her lonely heart.

Would she ever be able to trust her future to the man that wanted to share her life? Or would her crippling fear of rejection keep her from trusting anyone with her future, even God?
