She's a swindler, a pickpocket, and a part of his past he'd rather forget When a medicine show stops near Moccasin Rock, Texas, life changes for Dr. Nathaniel Calhoun in a way that has nothing to do with elixirs and tonics, and everything to do with the arrest of a beautiful young woman named Lenore. She's a swindler, a pickpocket, and a part of his past he'd rather forget.Lenore Adams spent her life traveling across the south with a medicine show, dreaming of a home, family and roots-and for a brief time after meeting Nathaniel-believing it was all possible. Lenore understands why he isn't glad to see her in Moccasin Rock, though. She once tricked him, robbed him, and wronged him in other ways he doesn't even know about. Now, Lenore longs to be the kind of woman Nathaniel wants...and will want to keep. But will he ever trust her? Forgive her?They are both still struggling with just those questions when a tornado strikes Moccasin Rock and suddenly there's no time to focus on regrets or second chances. In addition to caring for the injured, mourning the dead, and helping rebuild the town, Lenore and Nathaniel must deal with an escaped outlaw, questions of faith...and friends who aren't at all what they seem.
