When Bethany Moore returns to her childhood home she is heartbroken to find that the old oak tree behind the house is gone.

Reverend David Hadaway, the new owner of the house, makes no apologies for cutting down the tree because it was threatening the foundation.

Along with the loss of the house, the tree, and her grandmother's failing health, Bethany's world has been shaken to its core. But with David's patience and steadfast commitment to always doing the right thing, she realizes what's really important in life.

It finally takes being forced to make a major, life-altering decision before she can act on her heart's desires and accept true love.
