Kate O'Connell is a young woman who had a rough childhood growing up with her Mother who made a living working as a prostitute. At twelve years of age Kate escaped into the sanctuary of the life of a convent and now she is on the verge of taking her vows to become a full fledged nun. Her life takes a dramatic turn when she is sent out of her cloistered nunnery into the world to deliver a holy relic to a sick priest who happens to he her uncle. Her party is robbed and left for dead and she is rescued by Jess Darnell a man with secrets of his own who will be her ultimate savior or the death of her dreams of becoming a proper Benedictine nun. This story had very good build up, character development, and it was refreshing the way the reader slowly learned about each character's past and was fed bits and pieces throughout the story. The only criticism I have is that it did jump around from place to place a bit in some of the chapters a bit abruptly from one environment and group of characters to another other than that great novel.
