Will his efforts to save a beautiful childhood friend in distress lead a Christian young man to true love, or will the weight of his guilt over a family tragedy bury him in the depths of despair?

Johnny Davenport's carefree life came to an abrupt halt when he unknowingly contributed to a family tragedy, and while no one else holds him responsible, the guilt he carries has led to months of sullen introspection. When his flighty, overdramatic neighbor, a childhood friend who seems interested only in social status, enlists his help when her parents pressure her to marry a foreign noble, he can't say no. She's no longer the little girl he remembers, and he finds himself distracted by her pretty smile and even more so by the absolute faith she has in him.

Can Johnny forgive himself and open his heart when their fake engagement leads to real romance, or will he turn his back on a hopeful future, casting himself and the woman he loves into misery?
