America's Heartland, 1946. World War II has ended, and everyone is pursuing peacetime's bright promise with fresh energy and hope. Newly-arrived in a small Wisconsin town, Christina Tucker now dares to chase her long-cherished dreams: put her wartime nursing skills to use and reconnect with country life. But helping a shell-shocked veteran recover soon tests her determination and disturbs town memories best left buried. She has no choice but to turn to her patient's seemingly-irresponsible brother, Tyler Sutter. A restless ex-soldier, Tyler can't believe this pretty ladylike nurse can heal his family. Yet as Christina begins to understand Tyler's own fears, the two grow close, then closer still-as a terrible secret sparks one man's violent, vengeful spree. With both the guilty and innocent alike in harm's way, Tyler and Christina must face all their fears . . . or never live to see the future.

About the Author:
Dorothy Garlock is the author of over 50 novels that have sold over 15 million copies and are published in 15 languages. She lives in Iowa.
From Booklist:
Garlock stays with her tried-and-true setting of small Midwestern towns in the early twentieth century as she tells the story of a third member of the Tucker family from Stay a Little Longer (2010) and Keep a Little Secret (2011). Christina Tucker, an army nurse during WWII, takes up a job in Longstock, Wisconsin, assisting Dr. Barlow, who is still fighting his demons from WWI. His nephews are WWII veterans: ill-mannered mechanic Tyler Sutter and his shell-shocked brother Holden, who will not leave his room. As Christina becomes part of the community, she discovers that Tyler is not what he appears to be and that she can help secretive Holden. But she is in danger from a dangerous psychopath who is fixated on Tyler, and a deranged drunk who blames Dr. Barlow for his brother’s death. All the hallmarks of a Garlock historical romance are here, including a feisty heroine, a tortured hero, nicely drawn details of the era, and evil antagonists. --Diana Tixier Herald
