Mary Avery was perfectly happy with her handsome husband, their beautiful baby boy, and their cozy cabin home-until the accident that left her permanently scarred. When her husband takes their son and abandons her, Mary gets another chance by running away to Arkansas Territory with her brother-in-law John David McKellar and his grieving brother, Matthew. Mary is rebuilding her life when she runs into a big complication-she's fallen in love with Matthew, though she's still bound in marriage to the man who deserted her. John David suggests the scandalous solution of petitioning for divorce, setting Mary on a path that crosses with others who share her suffering--a young man forced to hide his real self, a man whose big heart covers past sorrows, and a Choctaw girl driven from her home and separated from her family.
