From the rear cover
The strongest love is formed in the crucible of hardship
As Norah King surveys her family land in Iowa in 1880, she is acutely aware that it is all she has left, and she will do everything in her power to save it--even if that means marrying a man she hardly knows. Days before her wedding, Norah discovers an injured man on her property. Her sense of duty compels her to take him in and nurse him back to health. Little does she realize just how much this act of kindness will complicate her life and threaten the future she's planned.
Norah's care does more than aid Quincy Barnes's recovery--it awakens his heart to possibilities. Penniless and homeless, he knows the most honorable thing he can do is head on down the road and leave Norah to marry her intended. But walking away from the first person to believe in him proves much harder than he imagined.
"An emotional, restorative journey. This book is a heart-tugging story of choices and second chances, and these deftly woven characters will linger in your thoughts long after the last page."--Laura Frantz, Christy Award-winning author of A Heart Adrift
"A poignantly romantic tale of hope."--Kate Breslin, bestselling author of As Dawn Breaks
"Where the Road Bends is the perfect romance, with a twist or two so there's no predicting how the story will play out. A joy to read."--Jane Kirkpatrick, award-winning author of The Healing of Natalie Curtis
