When Joshua McBride doesn't die in a battle of the Civil War, he has an epiphany and then several months in a Union hospital to recover and rethink his life. He doesn't like the life he's led and decides to do things differently. He goes back home, where he caroused, chased women, and gambled his nights away. When he arrives in his hometown, he meets Addie Stapleton, a starchy miss who refuses to talk about her past. Addie quickly sees Joshua as a distraction she cannot afford. She tries to get rid of him, but the town has other ideas.
The romance between Joshua and Addie builds slowly because Addie wants no part of him. Addie has worked hard for the stellar reputation she has in town. However, one day Addie's past comes into her present and she is absolutely shattered.
This is a story about forgiveness and proof that people can change if they have enough motivation and fortitude. This is one of Cheryl St. John's earlier novels and it has a powerful message. Overall score = 4.5 stars
