After losing her husband and daughter in a fire, Michaela Macintosh never planned to love again. She certainly didn't imagine that her heart would be torn between two very different men. Philip Macintosh had always been a stable friend to Michaela. His feelings change, however - and he makes known his desire to be more than a compassionate brother-in-law. Eric Johnson is a handsome widower raising a family of six. His children capture Michaela's affection, and Eric stirs her heart and spirit. Now Michaela is faced with important questions: Has she mistaken familiarity for love? Would the Lord desire her heart to be safe with Philip or rekindled with Eric?

A very enjoyable short read. When Michaela begins to think about moving on after the loss of her husband and daughter in a fire, two men are quite ready to fall in love with her themselves. Trouble is, both are excellent men, and she has a very difficult time deciding between Philip and Eric.
The story is well-written, and one of the few I've ever read that has the dread "love-triangle" done both believably and non-frustrating.
Book two is Rebecca's Heart, about Eric's eldest daughter.
Book three is Adam's Bride, about Eric's eldest son.
