All D.A. Gil Montgomery wants is a robbery conviction, but what he gets is a mistrial, thanks to the new teacher in town, Patience Andrews. Gil meets his match in the headstrong Patience, who challenges Gil's expertise. Yet as they work, together to catch a criminal, the willowy innocent begins to charm the stubborn prosecutor. Gil had made the wrong choice once -- with his son's mother. Can he trust his judgment now? Is Patience merely the bane of his existence . . .or the woman meant to be his wife?

Grace, Patience and Constance -- bound together by their love for each other and their faith in God, these women are . . .sisters of the heart.
