Everything ended and began that night. The night of the kiss. The night of the fire. The night her mama died...

When a devastating fire kills her mother and destroys her home, Bethany Rose Henry comes to live with her half-sister, Catherine Herrick. But Bethany, resentful and frightened, must contend with a whole new unsettling world as she gets to know the family she never knew she had.

When an autopsy reveals that her mother was murdered, the clues eventually point to a member of Catherine's immediate family. Will Bethany speak up and accuse the murderer? Or will she push everyone away in her bitterness, including the handsome young minister who has fallen in love with her?
