German forces have destroyed everything dear to Mary Theresa Malinowski--including her native Poland and her childhood innocence. When an unexpected gift sends her to America, her path crosses that of Nelson Thomas, an embittered veteran whose own plans met a swift death on the battlefields of Europe. Now he considers himself unworthy of anyone''s love. Can two young people scarred by war''s inhumanity find lasting peace? Will they ever be able to forgive their enemies? Only then will their hearts recognize and reach out for an equally precious gift... the kind of unconditional love for each other that only God can bestow.
