With mounting pressure to find the baby a home, they hastily marry-but soon realize their marriage of convenience is not so convenient after all"--, Provided by publisherUnemployed and struggling with grief, Zoe Hart leaves England on a bride ship to British Columbia. Her brother fled there when falsely accused of a drastic crime. Pastor Abe Merivale discovers an abandoned native baby during a visit to Victoria, and is forced to choose between the strict rules of his bishop and listening to God's nudges to care for his people. To protect Zoe from an unsavory marriage, he offers his own hand instead. They hastily marry, but soon realize the marriage of convenience is not so convenient after all. -- adapted from back cover
