A Slender Thread — Lee Scofield
THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL
Jennifer had worked very hard to put the scandal of her once privileged and pampered life in Philadelphia behind her. Yet when she settled as the schoolteacher in a quiet Kansas town, she never dreamed that a veritable stringer--the handsome and aloof Gil Prescott--would entrust the care of his newborn son to her while he went off to fight in the Civil War.
Gil's return unleashed a secret yearning that neither of them could ignore, a desire so strong that the respectful distance they kept quickly collapsed with their ardent passion. Though a man from Jennifer's past threatened to destroy the happiness, a slender thread of hope wove their love into an unbreakable bond that would last a lifetime.
