Publisher's Synopsis
Ella Dessa's dreams included the hope Jim McKnapp might realize she is no longer a child and fall in love with her. But it is his younger brother, Samuel, who learns her ways, loves her laugh, and slowly wins her heart. Their friendship forges a bond both can count on during stressful times.
Then, at a church picnic, a wounded man rides a horse into Beckler's Cove. Josh Ragget brings with him a bag of gold nuggets and one goal in mind -- to make Ella Dessa his wife. In a fit of rage, Josh kidnaps her, forcing her down a mountain trail.
Throwing aside his own feelings, Jim goes after Ella Dessa, vowing to return the girl he loves into the arms of his brother.
Within the candle's glow there is warmth and light, but also pain for those who come too close.
