6Marlene Burki came to Baker's Corner looking for sanctuary. She wasn't expecting to find freedom. Pregnant and desperate, Marlene would never have left her husband Jeremy if she'd had any choice. Even now, she's riddled with guilt over the fact that she's breaking the sacred covenant of marriage, and she knows Jeremy will never forgive her. But her love for the child inside her drives her to do whatever it takes to keep the unborn baby safe - even if it means she has to lie to everyone she loves. Her future is uncertain, her past is agony, and her present secret grows ever more difficult to keep. And when Marlene meets Zebadiah Hartzler, with his kind ways and gentle presence, is doesn't make things any easier for Marlene. As the consequences of her secret grow and tragedy upon tragedy strikes her, Marlene can't see how she will ever escape the web of suffering she's spun around herself. It will take a miracle of healing, a divine plan, and an ocean of love to turn her life around...
